Might as well get it going. No spoilers beyond the first 7 minutes that has been released on HBOMax.

interesting it was so much earlier here than the USA. But I thought it was decent. Tho, I typically enjoy most movies I see in the theater more than if I watched them at home with a more critical eye.

It had some nice nods to the games, some decent fights, etc. It made me wanting more when it ended, so I guess that is good.

Honestly, I'd recommend watching it. It doesn't give away much of anything, but gets the movie/story going in a great way. Honestly, they could've released that 7 minute clip as the "trailer" and it would have been great.

I was going to not watch it, but am glad that I did. It got me pumped about Friday.

Very glad I watched those first 7 minutes. Like that we're going to get the backstory on Scorpion. So are we to assume that Cole is a family member right?

From the first 7 minutes, it look like Scorpion will be a major part of the movie and have a somewhat similar theme as the Scorpions revenge movie.

Exact same boat. I was decently excited to see it. Probably stream it in a couple of weeks. I finally gave in and check out the 7 minute video.

Pretty sure I'm going to go see it in theaters this weekend.

In the games, Jubei (Satoshi is his name in the games) is an only child. They clearly showed his baby sister being hidden for a reason.

I'm not sure how they would explain how Kuai Liang is related to Bi Han in sequels if Bi Han is over 400 years old. In the games, Kuai Liang is his younger brother...and has one of the greatest redemption arcs in all game stories.

You can watch it. It's a prolouge more than anything. A back story of two of the most popular characters.
