About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, quirky kung-fu adventure with comic-book style flourishes and a steampunk threat; Not for you if you need a grounded story or clear closure, and it may recall The Yinyang Master.
Pros: playful humor; flashy steampunk touches; energetic martial arts | Cons: thin story; uneven tone; ends inconclusively
