Double World (2020)
6/10
Double World Left A Bad Taste In The Mouth Of This Connoisseur Of All Things Asian Cinema!
26 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
One of the best things that happened to me was the "Globalization" of the entertainment industry! I loved anime (which in middle America was basically Robotech, Fist Of The North Star, & a few scattered small series) and the closest thing I had to manga were comic books & Archie's, then of course my brother and i used to BEG to stay up late Saturday for the Midnight Kung-Fu on the local channels, but until the last couple decades, the words: anime, manga, wuxia, webtoon, and K O One (LOL) didn't have NEARLY the meaning that they do to me now! Be it my anime like Berserk!, Fairytail; manga like Bleach, Full Metal Alchemist; horror like Train to Busan, Svaha; camp like Battle Royal, Dead Sushi; fantasy like Animal World; wuxia like Ice Fantasy, Ashes Of Love; drama like Princess Weiyoung; I eat it UP! Every day! All different kinds, I seem to enjoy almost every style, & I attribute this to their high expectations for good actors, storyline, visuals, etc. I haven't seen any that Id recommend to Rotten Tomatoes, until today.

I'm sorry, I'm going to be somewhat vague, because i hate it when people spoil the core storyline, but this movie is like Jell-O, it wiggles all over the place, without having any REAL substance, and the plot is so weak that you can see right through it! I THINK there are 2 warring countries, i THINK the main kid is royalty-though they never REALLY explain, and the guy he was close with, ended up being a total DONKEY to him, even after he saved him time & again- including from execution!

This is a STINKER! Watch for the cool basillisk & giant Mongolian dog, fast forward past the rest!
