About this movie

Yuen Woo Ping (The Matrix trilogy, Kill Bill Volumes I and II, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Hero) brings you True Legend, a heart pounding epic about the timeless battle between good and evil. Su Can's (Vincent Zhao) respectable life is obliterated when his vengeful brother, Yuan (Andy On), returns from war armed with the deadly Five Venom Fists. Weakened but not destroyed, Su Can learns a never-before-seen form of martial arts: the Drunken Fist. Armed with this new power, he returns home to honor his family through retribution by taking on his brother in a battle to become the ultimate warrior. Packed with distinct fighting styles—including MMA, knife combat and sweeping aerial stunts— and starring martial arts legends Michelle Yeoh, David Carradine and Jay Chou, True Legend has Phillip French of The Observer raving, "It opens with one of the best action sequences I've ever seen." MPAA Rating: R Sequences of battle violence and brutal fighting (C) 2010 Universal Studios, Grand Plentiful Holdings Group Limited

Ratings and reviews

Great story line! A little drawn out but overall outstanding screen play. True Martial arts fans will easily rate this high. The fight scenes are visually stunning especially in high definition, along with the special effects and sound. Well I'm no long reviewer by any means but this is a killer flick. The only part I did not care for was the end with all the English characters fighting in the arena. Many Chinese martial arts movies are paving that into these types of movies. I would say leave it out.

Good movie but wouldn't let me watch it again before my 48 hours were up
