'Vanguard' review: It's all so over-the-top, it's amazing

If movies were recipes, this is how to make the latest Chinese blockbuster Vanguard. Take one part G.I. Joe, pour in the most high-octane parts of a Fast And Furious movie, then throw it into a wok and heat it all the way up to "Michael Bay" levels.

If your concoction explodes, you're doing it right. And you won't need ingredients like "plot" or "character development". Who needs those, right? All they do is bog your movie down!
