SHANG-CHI AND THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS Reactions Praise Epic Action & One Of The MCU's Best Origin Stories

The first social media reactions for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings have been revealed following last night's world premiere, and it seems we're in store for something special with this one.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' world premiere took place last night, and just as it was back in the pre-COVID days, that means we now have the first reactions from those in attendance. 

While there's definitely a lot of excitement for the latest Marvel Studios movie, the trailers really haven't given much away, particularly when it comes to how this story will fit into the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe. Well, based on these comments from critics, this movie is about to open the door to a whole new side of this shared world, thanks, in part, to an origin story like no other. 

Shang-Chi definitely sounds like a movie that will exceed expectations, and for those of you who feel like you already know how the story will play out, it appears Marvel Studios has some big surprises in store. Time will tell what those are, but this doesn't sound like a simple father/son story.

We've come to expect early reactions like these to be massively positive, so it will be interesting to see how the reviews compare when they start dropping early next week. If these Tweets are any indication, though, it looks like this is going to be another critical hit in the MCU's Phase 4.

Check out these social media reactions for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings below:

Knew this movie was going to be up there with some of the best mcu movies, and will have the best hand to hand action in any superhero movie or show. This film showed so much promise from early, I'm really happy to hear that it delivered.

I'm sticking to this movie overperforming, I think it's going to go higher than its box office opening weekend projections. And overall make more money than black widow box office.

I know it's early reactions which can be a bit dodgy but seeing so much praise for the action scenes is so important considering almost every recent Asian led martial arts film from Hollywood has failed on that front (Mulan, Mortal Kombat, Snake Eyes).

Glad to here, because to be honest the marketing hasn't really done anything for me. I'm glad there seems to be more to it then just the Father/son conflict and that the martial arts are on point. I was afraid the film was just going to be big cgi fights.

Can't wait to see the film myself...I trust Eric from Fandom/Screen Junkies opinion along with Wendy, Dani, the main reviewer I want to see his reaction(cause for the most part I share his same type of viewing superhero film thinking is Dan Murrell's along with my uncles on Double Toasted

"One of"? Other than Steve and Tony they were basically all pretty shit.

@Spagett - Technically, Guardians counts as an origin story.

Also, if Shang-Chi is considered an origin story, wouldn’t Black Panther also count?

The praise for the action is everything and instill confidence with this being a western Asian leading martial arts film.

What I’ve been most concerned about.

Glad to see the glowing reviews but I still will reserve judgement until I actually see the film. Regardless I'm definitely looking forward to this and I expect I'll like it a lot.

@DoubleD -
Have you not seen the box office for Black Widow? Have you not seen the box office tracking for Shang Chi?
DoubleD
DoubleD - 8/17/2021, 5:07 AM
@Scarilian - that's why it's called very early tracking and done for all movies. Once the movie is released and reviews hit Rotten Tomatoes box office numbers will go up. Then comes word of mouth kicks in after Thursday Night viewings and the audience goes crazy.
