That's the part that brough it down for me. It's a martial arts type of movie, you would think there would be more of that especially in the third act. But no, we get the typical MCU cgi bullshit. I really wish it was something Shang Chi can actually use his rings against in a hand to hand combat like against his father. Otherwise still a good movie, I still think the Dad had more potential to be a recurring villain like Ultron, so yeah was disapointed he was killed off. But i did enjoy how they made the dad a pretty 3-dimensional villain.
I understand that critique. It's quite reasonable given how realtively low key it was most the rest of the film.
That said the graceful Great Protector Dragon is pretty standout among MCU CGI IMO. Definitely fitting the overall themes of the film as Eastern dragons tend to have a more more graceful, serpentine, elemental representation compared to the firey brutality of western dragons.
