Didn't see this advertised much, or at all really, surprising considering Michelle Yeoh is in it but this short series dropped on the 4th of January and it follows the story of a Triad family war that causes one of the brothers to go to LA and track down his mother and younger brother who's been shielded from the lifestyle, not finished it yet but three episodes in it's good, light, action focused, feels like a good chaser to start the new year with.

Best movie I've seen on netflix. Well worth it if you're into the survive after crash type of movie. Also it all really happened. I looked it up afterwards and it seems most of it was actually pretty accurate.

I put this on, on a whim, just to have something on in the background, and both the wife and I love it. Whitty, Funny, Unique, Gory, Dramatic etc

Watched the first three episodes before bed

It's fun. I was surprised this isn't getting more attention. Cinematography reminds me of Breaking Bad at times. It is silly, in a good way.

Edit: John Cho's house was hilarious.

It has good fight scenes and boring story, lame acting. Worth a watch just for the fight scenes though.

That actually looks really good.

Thanks for the tip OP. Something for the wife and I to binge this weekend!

Watched, really liked it for what it is, don't expect the godfather, but pretty well executed. Had a few good LOLs too, the dinosaurs scene went right over my wife's head.

Finished it off the other day, the highlight fight for me was the Golf Driving Range one, story feels like it slowed down a bit towards the end but it's still good enough for a viewing as long as you don't expect a super amazing script, it's light, funny in places, cool fights, like a modern day kung fu action show.
