Strong and Moving!

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Recap: After the king was overthrown there is a short time of order. But then generals and ministers start turning up dead, often most brutally slaughtered. The new king's best swordsman investigates and soon find out that the assassin is his best friend, one who is still loyal to the old king.Comments: Although full of swordfights and combat this is a unexpectedly slow movie. Mostly this is due to that a lot of the movie is flashbacks of how the two swordmasters became friends. How they trained and ultimately how they ended up on different sides of a war.It's a well crafted film. Obviously a lot of energy has been put in to get costumes and sceneries right. Actually it is a beautiful movie. Like many of recent Asian pictures this is very strong in filming. Visually it is almost flawless. However, the story is a weakness. It gets far too slow with these flashbacks. They are not clearly distinguishable either, and when the main characters switch clothes and are similar in appearance it is sometimes hard to figure out who is doing what. It sorts itself out in time though, but it doesn't help to keep the interest up.Maybe something for real fans of movies of medieval Asian times but for everyone else I guess another movie will work just as well.6/10

The best swordsman in the kingdom is tasked with finding out who is killing the ministers and looking to kill the king. The answer to the question lies in the past, specifically with the events that put the king on the throne-and it raises questions our hero may not want to deal with.Okay action/mystery/drama that is epic and compelling for a while before it just seems to be wandering on with no direction. There is a direction and there is a resolution, but by the end I really didn't care. Its not that its bad, its just that it didn't grab me or rather hold me. Worth a look if you run across it but I wouldn't go out of my way to find it.between 5 and 6 out of 10

Nice movie. At the begining, i thought it's a medieve detective kind hi-fi movie, but the ending totally surprised me. I guess, the whole movie covers too many subjects, each of them can be the main subject,e.g. avenge, friendship, and dream. But it mixed all of them without focusing on any of them. I think, it'd be a great movie if it's built around the ending from the very begining.

Although I saw this movie in Korea, in Korean, and therefore did not understand the language, images sure say more than enough. From what I can make of it, this is the story: Two superb sword fighters become friends in their service as the king's guard. One of them finds himself opposed to the ways of the king and starts assassinating important men. The other has to hunt him down. This movie is visually great. The swordfighting is great. And the movie has a gripping end. I just hope this movie will be marketed for the western cinema goers. And be released on DVD, of course.
