The film is grand fest of Wushu fights (most notable, the fight between grand masters involving a precariously balanced round dinner table – vintage). Unfortunately, the atrocious acting of a handful of Western actors completely marred the experience for me…Next to them, Yen seems to put on an Oscar-winning performance! Such a shame, otherwise would have been very good. Still I enjoyed the various fight scenes and Wushu fans won't be disappointed. At 46, Yen is still in amazing form.
