I'm not the type that always prefers the old to the new. I quite embrace new versions. However, this rendition of Condor Heroes was a waste of my life. No depth in conversations, very annoying acting. They cut out alot of lore and background, so I doubt this is a good watch for those new to the Condor Heroes franchise. The sad fact is that this drama focused completely on CGI and action scenes but skipped EVERYTHING else. There are however even faults with the action scenes! For a Martial Arts film, all it did for every episode was fist fights... All the types of martial arts, and focus on skills and training were thrown out of the window. Basically everyone more or less fought the same, taking away the fun of watching each style of martial art being represented. Nice sceneries and backgrounds were its only saving grace. If not this would have been 1/10.

Yes, i watched almost all condor heroes trilogy remake and i can say that this one is the best of them all. there are two things that i really like about this movie.

first is there is minimal exaggerated fight effect or so called chi. of course there are still some this inner energy burst, condor heroes movies believe that martial artists have inner energy they can burst out to attack enemies or defend themselves. but it is on the right portion, not too much and not too little.

second, there is no kissing scene. yes, in my opinion this represent ancient chinese culture. this also add some kind of romantic feels that i immediately lost on kissing scene.

Very good series. Exciting and engaging. But seriously need great patience to tolerate the utter dumbness and clueless Guo Jing. Saving grace is his sense of honor and right

I have watched all version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes, but I liked this version the most. Huang Rong is pretty cute.

Cons: some storylines don't make sense, too much departure from original book, not as loyal translated as the 2003 remake. I also have to appreciate 2003 remake for overall acting and scenes... Though including classic 85 theme 'Tie Xue Dan xin', still too lazy to pass without any new theme songs. Pro: compared to 2003 remake, improved kongfu fighting scenes, as well as CG processed beauty setting, everything looks neat and shining! Of course, the most handsome Huang Yaoshi of Peach Blossom Island. Actually none of those remakes are perfect to match legend of the original novel. I personally prefer 2003 remake despite a little room for improvement.
