Yet another Asian film (Chinese). This film takes all those swordfighting, martial arts movies and turns it into a comedy. I was unaware of this at the time, and thought it was a standard film like 'Hero' or 'House of Flying Daggers.' However it really was pretty funny and it wasn't that bad of a movie. It was very sweet and like I said it was funny. It especially had a kind of westernized theme to it. The way the girl acted and the whole shopping thing. But it was good, it was funny, the actors were great, the characters were well developed, I felt for them. If you're looking for a comedy with great martial arts, rent this.
