I am a big fan of Swordplay, and Hong Kong movies. My friend bought this movie after checking this database.
I can say that I was very disappointed in this movie and don't quite understand how it received such a high rating.
The movie story is difficult to follow and the action scenes are for the most part, nothing spectacular. There are moments that are nice, but for the most part the silliness of the story just left the a bad taste in my mouth for the whole film.
The final fight scene is good for a few laughs, and I suppose that was the best part as I had to rewind and watch again. It is quite humorous.
Save yourself the time and watch Warriors from Zu Mountain if you want fantasy and if your in the mood to watch a Good Tsui Hark production. Or if you want good swordplay, see Duel to the Death. This movie does not deserve the praise it has received.
