Hidden Dragon: The Sword of Destiny), a cook at a Chinese restaurant who was a legendary kung fu master. All went their separate ways after a falling-out over a trip to Japan to compete professionally. But when Sifu dies of unexplained heart attack, Hing suspects foul play, and they must reunite, juggling dead-end jobs, dad duties and old grudges to set things right and restore honor to their names.
The Paper Tigers is light, silly, and made on a meager budget, but it’s also made with love. Tran clearly cares about the movie he’s making, and he’s injected it with a lot of heart and some memorable character interaction. The titular trio is terrific, and I had a hard time getting over the fact that Uy’s filmography is so small he has such a dynamic star presence. Ron Yuan as Hing may be one of the most likable performances I’ve seen this year, and the chemistry between them is genuine.
The Plot:
Once known as the Kung Fu prodigies âThe Three Tigers,â the trio of martial artists are now middle-aged men one kick away from a pulled muscle. Their master teacher, Sifu Cheung (Roger Yuan), is murdered, which springs them into action. The childhood friends reunite to avenge him, as they juggle dead-end jobs, dad duties and old grudges.
Lynnâs Take:
A crisp throwback to the â90s era of martial arts movies, âThe Paper Tigersâ is a warm-hearted exercise in reconnecting friendships and rekindling your purpose.
First-time director Quoc Bao Tran, who also wrote the screenplay, has assembled a trio of likable actors whose chemistry is palpable for this action comedy: Alain Uy as Danny, a divorced dad who works in insurance; Ron Yuan as Hing, out-of-shape trash talker who used to work in hotel security; and Mykel Shannon Jenkins as Jim, who has been estranged from Danny.
