Summary: Disappointing and silly

I tuned out after 45 minutes, and only lasted that long because Polly is so watchable.

I watched this film with mandarin dialogue with no subs, but the silliness shone through clearly. The real problem is that there is so little action. The film seems to be playing for Polly to be a standup comedian more than a fighter. There are a couple of brief scenes which showcase a group of fighters who each have a style related to a zodiac sign, but it appears to be just a tease.

If anyone can convince me that the second half is a lot better, please say so.
