It's ok, apparently the professional reporters didn't think either. Or 'forgot' to ;)

Then there's the small unimportant matter of the screening days, too...
oh well. Reporters are gonna write what they're paid to write.

@ARYA I'm checking if you read it as you asked for posting and then wrote 'thanks for an article'.

60 minutes of the chinese radio show worth the listen even if you don't understand any chinese.

When asked what Reeves the director can say about Reeves the actor, he jokes, "Keanu is a true professional. Shows up on times, knows his lines. It took him a little while to figure out how he moved and stuff, it took a little more attention on the first day, but after that he did okay."

When the tables are turned, Reeves the actor says of his director with equal amusement, "It's his first time directing, but when I met him, it felt like I'd known him a long time, and had a really good relationship with him. I had the confidence he knew what he was doing."

While weighed down by superfluous threads and the need to please censors, Keanu Reeves' directorial debut remains a thoughtful, if overly-ambitious, reflection of a martial arts hero's struggle with his powers.

[...]

Rather than being simplistic, Reeves could be charged for being too ambitious in his attempt to add too many layers to his long-gestated directorial debut.

[...]

The film is clearly no simple vanity project for Reeves. While weighed down by digressions and contraptions, Man of Tai Chi is an adequate and ambitious effort from a first-time director, who could have enhanced his on-screen philosophical arguments with a bit more depth and done with a touch less of the admittedly riveting man-to-man melee.


overly-ambitious
GRRRRRR

Translation for that sign, which LucaM previously requested: "Never give up."
