Notes et avis

Simply an outstanding Chinese warrior movie. The summary above confuses me as I would have guessed this took place a hundred years or more earlier. And the synopsis is even more difficult to swallow. This is a movie about very complex and deep human emotions and traits portrayed by three main characters and one additional peripheral character. All of them accomplished weapons experts. All of them bound by one destiny. Highlighted by some astonishing aerial combat. Not at all like Bruce Lee.

Too much ridiculousness even beyond the suspension of belief typical of wuxia films. Notbsure why people would say if you like Bruce Lee movies, you'd like a half-witted wuxia film. Bruce Lee specifically wanted to bring more authentic martial arts to cinema.

This is a great martial arts movie with a story thats hard to follow at first. you should watch this but rent it first. This movie has a lot of action and romance in it. after you watch this you will most likely love it! If you do like this movie you should also watch some Bruce Lee movies. This movie is also in Chinese with English subtitles.
