This is the worst movie I have ever seen. It is nothing like Crouching Tiger or any of the other 1st rate movies. This is nothing but a lame story made by a wanna be director and actors. Bockbuster should not even offer this inferior movie. It gives Asian movies a bad name.

Yeah, it's a little cheap and cheesey, but the action set pieces are cool and the fighters are great. The story isn't much, but that's not the point to watching a kung fu movie. This is shot on video, so don't be suprised.
