(Originally published on Letterboxd) - Keanu Reeves makes his directorial debut with Man of Tai Chi, an action filled coming of age tale about a young man coming to grips with his inner rage so that he may one day control his chi, and find true balance.
Tiger Chen is a twenty something delivery boy. He's dissatisfied with his lot in life, and hungers for more. The last remaining student of the ancient martial art of Tai Chi, his master implores him to slow down and meditate, otherwise his chi will control him, and potentially lead him down a path of destruction. Of course, like many headstrong young men, he has to learn the hard way, underground fight club style.
