Available on 4K Ultra, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital

Marvel Studios’ Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings debuted on all major digital platforms November 12 and will release on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on November 30. Marvel fans can enjoy never-before-seen bonus material including 11 deleted scenes and a gag reel.



 I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this movie to Blu-ray and DVD, so that I could pick up and enjoy with my family.  While many of the Marvel movies have some sort of martial arts in their movies, this was the first one that centered around a lead Asian character and incorporates the hyped up world of superheros with martial arts -- a stellar combination if you ask me.  And, last night we got to watch this movie for the first time, and as soon as it started, we were all glued to the television and couldn't take our eyes off the screen. The story line was easy to follow along, and I loved how they added humor in the movie, so it wasn't so dark or serious.  Even my girls, who are not big into martial arts movies, found themselves really enjoying the movie. And, they loved the Shang-Chi character, and hope that there are more movies featuring this Marvel superhero in the future.  


As you can see from the movie trailer above, this movie will pull you in from the start, and will have you on the edge of your seat to see what happens next.  I really liked the choreographed kung-fu scenes, as they were like nothing we have seen before in a Marvel Studios film.  I hated for the movie to end, as it was that good.  But, when it did, I found myself happy to finally having got the opportunity to watch such an amazing movie.  This is one Marvel Studios movies I will watch time and time again. If you are looking for a great family-friendly movie that is filled with exciting martial arts and a great story line, I highly recommend you check out this film.  It is definitely not one to be missed.
