Latte Thunder's rating
I caught wind of this movie in a hong kong based design mag that ran a feature on it. The stills were amazing, so I did everything in my power to track it down. I'm no stranger to the world of Hong Kong action, but this was something completely new to me. Kinetic swordplay, astounding special effects, great story, great acting. This is the future of Hong Kong cinema. Andrew Lau has really gone the distance here. Aaron Kwok plays the moody and violent Cloud while Ekin Cheng plays the level headed and disciplined Wind. They fight under the guidance of the not-so-nice Lord Conquer excellently portrayed by Sonny (the man) Chiba. Together they conquer all of China with their martial arts might. But if Cloud and Wind combine, fight together and discover the truth about their cloudy pasts, Conquer is screwed. There's really not a bad thing I can say here, maybe the editing is a little liberal during the great fight scenes and really takes away from the glory, but even that's not too bad.
