this film really suprised me! i was expecting to be rubbish, but to be fair its not really that bad. im very picky with my martial arts films as i find the flying through the air and bouncing off arrows very hard to watch, but this is watchable and sometimes even amusing! the ending is the only bit of this film that lets it down for me, but dont let that put you off, just giving my own opinion as i dont like 'fairy tale' endings, all the action throughout the film then a blissful calm ending! congratulations to paul hunter, a modern yet 'ok' martial arts based film! my last words, i would recommend watching it but dont expect a beautiful masterpiece of fine martial arts

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
