"In the twilight of the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial court is plagued by corruption as tyrants rule over the land. With the Manchurians preying on a weakened empire, war is imminent."
Not as bad as I thought but it needed a lot more work. Fan Bing Bing was as beautiful as she normally is and she was a delight to watch. The costume designs were stellar and really fitted each character. The direction was poor as was some of the action scenes. I thought the ending was a bit rushed as was the "lie" present in the film. The lie almost felt worthless as it really didn't do much and proved the main character made a sacrifice that was in vain. Felt like the director tried to cram as much as he could in this film as if it was his last chance.
