if your expecting a kung fu movie do not rent this. not that it is a bad movie but it is pretty much just a drawn out love story.

This movie has alot of older famous cast from hong kong, however, the narrative style makes it slightly slow and at some point boring. The love stories of swordsmens told by one person.

I was really disappointed by this movie. I normally love martial arts movies, such as "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon", but this was not at all like it. I could only get through the first 30 minutes, which reminded me of the old Italian "Spaghetti Westerns" with that style of extreme facial closeups. I only reluctantly give this film one star for the color in filming.

Ok...there are a lot of issues with this one. I understand that there might be offended agitation about films with Asian people of this time period being stereotyped as "Martial Arts Only" and films that aren't martial arts shouldn't be dismissed out of turn, but this is just a bad film. The cover illustration and "Official" genre categorization as action/adventure is misleading to the point of being fraudulent. This is a project that's a victim of horrible directing/writing (bad cinematography/acting/plot construction.) The sexual innuendo in the horse scene was just ridiculously over the top for what they were going for. The look of the film is pretty bad considering it was supposed to be a huge budget film the muddy color and lack of clarity contributes to it looking like it was shot in the 70's. Just not good.
