Late to the Party Reviews: The Grandmaster (2013)

Let me preface this review by saying I know absolutely nothing about the Kung Fu genre. I enjoy action movies, but usually more for the interesting and exciting stories rather than the fight scenes. However, when this film started, I found myself unusually intrigued by the fight scenes, which seemed impeccably constructed to not only elicit a thrill but also to subtly build the character and world building of the film.
