FIRST 27:30 are a spoiler-free review with our See It/Skip It verdict

AFTER 27:30 it's a full spoiler review

Three members of the BFE went to see Shang-Chi (that all rhymed) - 1 was excited, 1 was pessimistic, and 1 was ambivalent.  How did we come out though? Georgia, Liam and Ian are here to run through their first feelings on Marvel's first film to feature an overwhelmingly Asian cast in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. How did all that kung fu measure up when put inside a Marvel movie? How did this compare to another family-based Marvel film in Black Widow? Was the villain a step too far in believability? Which Marvel cameos were here and how did we feel about them? What is Disney's next marketing tool fresh out of this film? We answer all these questions and more in our "See It or Skip It" review of Shang-Chi and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
