Shang-Chi Review: Sean (Simu Liu) and his Emma Stone-esque quirky best friend Katie (Awkwafina), are two happy slackers. They are uninspired and quite content with their minimum wage (valet driver) jobs in San Francisco.

A spectacular hand-to-hand combat sequence aboard a bus gives away Sean’s true identity — Shang Chi, the ultimate warrior.
