Featured reviews
The movie starts with girls practicing archery as the master looks on. A male student is interested in our girl but she is only interested in him as a target for her arrows.
Suet Nei was one of the fabulous female swordswomen of the 1960s along with Josephine Siao Fung-Fung, Connie Chan Po Chu, and Yu So Chau. She had some martial arts or Chinese opera experience. In this movie, and a few others, she had the benefit of the greatest duo of action directors who ever lived - Tong Kai and the Grandmaster Liu Chia-Liang. (This reviewer considers Liu Chia-Liang to be the greatest person in the history of martial arts movies.)
Margaret Tu Chuan's career began in 1958 at age seventeen. This was her last movie. She opted for a permanent solution to her temporary marriage problems by taking a suicidal overdose.
My copy is a digital file that plays on a HDTV with the resolution of a typical VHS recording. The audio track is totally muddled with an echo. The video also has that peculiar VHS effect where the background sometimes moves like ocean waves. The dialog is Chinese which I do not understand. I have watched many of these movies without the dialog and more often than not I can still figure out the story. This time there was a lot of talking and I could not figure out the story. There is no English dubbed or subtitled version of this movie available anywhere. Prove me wrong, if you can. I would watch the movie again if in English.
The action is mostly sword fighting. There were a few excellent sequences when the fighters were masked. I am sure this was the two action directors showing their considerable skills.
To be fair, I will rate this movie as average for the year and genre. I cannot recommend it to anyone who doesn't speak Chinese.
