Unaware that he also is a trained martial artist, their love blossoms but tensions arise as the truth of her past unravels. Soon, a lethal triangle surfaces between her, Jiang and the team of assassins that are after the monk's remains. (Anchor Bay Ent.)

A prototypical four-star film. The decent directing, the great actors, the gorgeous visuals, and the fancy action make for an entertaining experience of well-done blockbuster. The wu-xia elements are decent, it's not as far fetched as other films with similar themes, which suited me just fine. Too bad about the wizard, he gave the impression of fantasy. 75%.
