Will Smith's Gemini Man Earning Rave Reviews as a "Technical Marvel"
Filmmaker Ang Lee has been a powerful force in cinemas for decades, with films like Crouching [...]
Technical Marvel
prevnextGEMINI MAN is a technical marvel. In its high frame rate of 120fps, the action sequences legitimately took my breath away. The 20-year-old script leaves something to be desired but seeing a young Will Smith pull off the dramatic moments was a treat.

Breakthrough
prevnextAng Lee’s #GeminiMan is a huge breakthrough for 120FPS presentation. Action sequences are breathtaking in the format. Will Smith’s winning performance shows the level of scrutiny a real movie star can stand up to. If you don’t see it in theaters you’re missing a true experience. pic.twitter.com/k6nlyH6kD9

Bold, Unique Action
prevnextJust saw Ang Lee’s #GeminiMan and it’s legit. Old Will Smith vs young Will Smith equals a visually visceral experience that’s absolutely wild to watch at times. Again, Ang Lee delivers bold, unique action that’s on par w/ the best. See it in 3D, for sure. pic.twitter.com/wRNlNfJQ9w

Must Be Seen in 3D
prevnextJust saw the final cut of Ang Lee’s #GeminiMan and it’s probably the only movie I’d ever say absolutely must be seen in 3D (and 4K, if possible). I’ve never seen anything like it — it felt like I was inside the movie.

Strong Argument
prevnextEven high-frame rate skeptics may be converted by what Ang Lee pulls off in #GeminiMan. While not seamless, it's probably the strongest argument for HFR photography I've seen, and the illusion actually gets better as the movie goes along.

True Event Film
prevnextGemini Man in 120 FPS 3D is a true event film, friends. Late 90s action mold filled with everything Ang Lee brings to the table.

Vibrating
prevnextVibrating from excitement after seeing GEMINI MAN, it uses 120FPS and 3D to create some of the most exciting action sequences I've seen in years. Happy to see Ang Lee return to action, the choreography feels intense because it looks so realistic pic.twitter.com/qXM3lq1sn2

3D Endorsed
prevnextJust saw #GeminiMan and it’s wiiiiiiild. The young version of Wil Smith is incredible, plus some truly beautiful action sequences and a really great performance by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. The only 3D movie I’ll ever endorse.

Perfect Canvas
prevGemini Man is a well above average Bruckheimer movie, with some story touches that are decidedly Ang Lee. The action though is the real meal for Lee, as it supplies the perfect canvas for his next crack at HFR 3D filmmaking. The results of which are impressive at times.
