Sword Master

Rundong He's performance is surprisingly the best in this embarrassing movie. I am even shocked by the unreasonable and confusing character Yeqing Zhu who is asking "Do you love me?" all the time. The most confusing scene is that villagers blamed Yan Shisan for not teaching them Kungfu after he just saved all of them. What's even more unacceptable is that Shisan Yan forced into the town and killed all people near the bad boss and screaming "I will never be a selfish man!" Although many details in this movie cannot be explained ideally, the relationship between Shisan Yan and Xiaofeng Xie really moved me a lot. Two respectable swordsmen pitied each other's talent and spirit.

So beautiful. Worth every minute. Definitely deserves more than a 6 rating

Excellent movie, would definitely recommend, great story too.

Sword Master 2016 is a wu xia martial arts movie remake of a old Shaw Bros movie Death Duel 1977 starring Derek Yee as the main character now he back again as the director of the new version.The original version is not terrible but also not that good to begin with but the new version is absolutely better in every aspect.The character is more well developed,the cinematography is as good as a wu xia movie can get and the action scene is flat out awesome.I find the actors in this version fit with the story more than the old cast.The conflict between the two sword master played by Kenny Lin and Peter Ho is more fleshed out although some of the random stuff and a boring romantic subplot is still there but at least this time it not meaningless.They definitely up the wire work action in this one cause the original is traditional Chinese swordplay but it work well in this version.Highly recommend to martial arts movie fan

Bad cast, pretentious dialog, childish scenarios, one-way predictable boring storyline....only the village settings looked pretty good, so-so CGI special effect which sometimes looked quite unreal and fake. There's nothing more to comment. Just another deadbeat Chinese Hong Kong shallow production.
