Ratings and reviews

Fast action, great story of loyalty, love, and betrayal. Best of all, the clarity of each detail in the movie transports you in real time as if you are in their presence. Excellent, mesmerizing!

Fine examples of loyalty, deceit and treachery all mixed into one. It is amazing how much corruption, and ruthlessness there was in the era and the culture. One can also be impressed at the level of martial arts discipline is needed in order to survive. This movie gives us a good look into that and much more.

Excellent plot and betrayed this is another must-see but look for the DVD collect to select English
