I bought this today as I saw it on offer in the shops.
I'd just like to re-iterate Dyms post: Quote:
It's not as good as "Hero" in my opinion, and I'm inclined to say that "House Of The Flying Daggers" is better, but this is still an absolutely awesome film and some of Jet Li's finest fighting. The sheer speed of some of the work almost beggers belief. I can fully understand why he's giving up this stuff given the amount of practice that must have gone in to his general abilities to get himself up to the appropriate level (for "The Legend" he spent 6 months practising 12 hours a day just focussing on his hand-to-hand skills to ensure he was good enough), and he is in his mid forties now.

I can only concur with dymetrie, in fact I might purchase it for that price. As good or better than Kiss of the Dragon and, oddly perhaps, one of the most moving martial arts films I've ever watched - it might be the knowledge that it is supposedly Jet Li's last martial arts film but watching the final scene brings a lump to my throat (I think you will understand when you watch it).

Yeah it's a good movie and I thought it was billed as his last "period" martial arts movie.

An excellent film and if its only £4 then i'm tempted to get it myself. As has been said its his last full martial arts film. I think they were referring to him getting on and not being able to do the full long fight scenes

As it may have been a waste of £4 if the film was pants !
no much to think about really.
