Just watched Descendant Of The Sun, aka "Shaw Brothers make Superman 1978, but set it in Fantasy Ancient China"

It has:

So many onscreen drawn effects.
So much coloured lighting.
So many people explode. (So many!)
A temple set with a skybox that makes it look like a real life Half-Life map.
Bumbling not-Clark Kent looks after a sassy parrot.
Really impressive practical effects.
A drunken rendition of The Superman theme on an 80s synthesizer

The uncanny irl forerunner to many an FPS map
