Set in 19th-century China, two master warriors are faced with their greatest challenge when the treasured Green Destiny sword is stolen.

As each warrior battles for justice, they come face-to-face with their worst enemy, and the enduring power of love.

There is a reason why Ang Lee cast professional ballerinas to do the sword fighting.

Filled with lovely martial arts choreography and a fairy-tale-like story, this movie is a wonderful treat. The story is a romance with swords and weapons. Chinese martial arts fantasy in a most lovely setting.

Overinflated, but enjoyable.
