Yat do king sing

If you like watching martial arts movies. This is a definate must see. I believe the fight choreography was done by Sammo Hung, and it is very well done.

The other reviews mention violence. Surely something to avoid showing to children, but by no means did I find it disturbing. Most of the violence is very silly. For the most part, I found them most humorous.

Similar to Shaw Bro.s movie violence. In the first action sequence, the star flies across the screen. It just happens to be convenient that there are about seven soldiers standing in a line, and he beheads them all in one swipe.

The final battle and the tournament fight are excellent. Good mindless fun.

Traditional Hong Kong styled Kung fu movie with intense solid actions, the actors are well trained and beautifully choreographed with actual martial arts styles, especially the antagonist role by Changjun Zhao who is an actual champion of nationwide martial arts competitions. The story is decent and loosely based on historic events, however the ending and acting is somewhat flimsy, which would have been better if the comedic areas were cut as they are just superfluous, lousy and somewhat damages the integrity of the story.

A true martial arts movie that digs deep into the emotions of the viewer. Movies like these are rarely made so fantastic. Samo Hung directed this masterpiece and to me it's his greatest achievement to date. The martial arts is incredible eventhough there's a great use of wire work. The story is true and deep and reveals the justice of betrayal, loyalty, deceit and sacrifice. A martial arts movie of the highest calibre. By the way all the cast are excellent. A movie worth seeing.

Probably some of the best martial arts choreography in a film but some of the most hacky acting. Stay for the fights.

A very good Chinese classic period swordplay story. A humble, but very skilled kung fu fighter helps defeat a large troup of bandits who are attacking an official convoy. A very high-up official thanks and befriends the kung fu expert. As the story progresses, it becomes more evident that the high official is a very cruel and ambitious person. The anti-hero friend becomes critical of the official and gets into trouble over it. He refuses to back down even when threatened with his life. This is a very violent movie, enough to rate a category III in Hong Kong (no adult scenes are in this-so it is all from violence). Really excellent performances from the entire cast. Incredible fight sequences make this a must-have for any hard-core enthusiast of classic period swordplay films (with lots of wirework).
