The film was initially planned for release in China for the Chinese New Year but its release in China was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] It therefore premiered in Australia on 25 January 2020.

Reception

Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian gave the film 3/5 stars, calling it "more no-holds-barred slapstick action".[4]

gollark: I had assumed that you valued your sanity too much to use Go.
gollark: I have now added the capability for pages to have multiple names, like in 7, to 8.
gollark: Minoteaur advances *ever further*.
gollark: Wow, the debug mode Minoteaur binary is 100MB.
gollark: r/golang, presumably.
