Why I Hate Chinese Movies

When I was young, especially during my teenage years, I loved Chinese movies so much. Talk about Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and others.

The way they fought, the film tricks and effects, all fascinated me – even till my late 20s.

Now I hate Chinese movies. Why?

I’ve grown older and have had many experiences in life. I know that those movies are often full of things that aren’t realistic. They can’t happen like that in real life. Why should I waste my time watching only fantasies?

Now, I’ve many logical and rational things to do with my life and for the benefits of others; and definitely, Chinese movies aren’t one of them.

Another thing is: Chinese movies plots sound like rubbish to me now. Senseless fights. Fights that have no meanings. In reality, can one strong man beat and subdue 100 dangerous thugs?

Two persons meet each other on a road and one say: “I’m stronger than you.” The other person replies: “No, I’m stronger than you.” And they both start fighting. Do you see any sense in that? These used to intrigue me as a young person, but that’s no longer true.

That’s part of the reasons why I don’t like Chinese movies anymore. Movies that portray rationality, logic, and realities make more sense to me now.
