A lovely break from Hollywood ?

Wow! Silent and deadly. Will need to watch again but this is no doubt one of the best sword fighting movies in the year. I really liked Jang Hyuk in this movie, he really nailed the performance of the main character. I highly recommend this movie, a bit slow but fun to watch with modern effects and fighting skills??

Very Nice

If the story was better told it could become a classic.The fights scenes are very good.The protagonist is moved by duty for his king and daughter. He's an interesting character and built on the tradition of the japanese Zatoichi.
