How good is it to finally have a full slate of Chinese New Year movies in the cinemas once again? While in the past, a Stephen Chow or Jackie Chan movie used to be the staple during the CNY period, these days, Donnie Yen is arguably the biggest draw from Hong Kong.

Meet Wuxia Superman, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.Yen has been relatively quiet for his standards in recent years, with his last starring role in a movie being 2020’s Raging Fire. But he makes a comeback in a big way with Sakra, not only starring in the movie, but co-producing it with Wong JIng and also directing it himself.
