Kung Fu Jungle (一個人的武林)

Donnie Yen returns once again in another generic fisty-punch-punch swabble through the streets, rooftops, and underneath actual 'in-transit' HGVs of Hong Kong. A story as thin as the cereal box it was printed on, dodgy editing, and uninspired action-choreography shows that Hong Kong martial art flicks have become as tame and bland as unfried rice. Gentle martial-act convict, Donnie Yen, chases raving martial-art looney, Wang Baoqiang, through the medium of bland HK police dramatics provided by Charlie Young. There is a minor-irrelevant story of a girl with cancer, people die, and Donnie Yen wins! And by winning, I mean he ends the film saving his girlfriend who is 23 years younger than him. Hong Kong Cinema at its best.
