2/5
Slow motion Kato fights are a bit overdone, but his skills are fun to watch.

1/5
Love Jay as Kato, but Seth Rogen is a big nope.

Both comic accurate, but the car is just the balls.
Theme Song
0/5
Notes
I can’t remember the critical reaction at the time, but I remember liking it a lot. Rewatching it, it’s funnier than I remember, and nailed a lot of the comic book movie tropes before their time.
