Audience Reviews

r96sk 7/10 Jul 26, 2024
Far from perfect, though <em>'Chang Can Dunk'</em> manages to leave a mark.

Its plot is told in quite a heavy-handed manner, while the pacing and acting (cast are likeable, mind) isn't all that noteworthy. However, bits of the story do have a decent tinge of sadness attached to them, particularly with Chang and his mother, Chen. The film made me feel something, so props for that.

I don't have much more to say about it. Not a great movie, but one that manages to make itself work - at least it did for me.
