Lots of info on the DVD but more on the film and what you liked disliked about it and the DVD features would be good. Personally I was amazed by this film, I was expecting it to be really bad in the Fu Manchu style but really enjoyed it!

Advantages: Great fight scenes, pretty well written and directed, story rich in substance, breaking into the western market Disadvantages: subtitled, nothing new, too dramatic and poetic if you're not into the sort of thing, the storyline can be confusing - so watch carefully!
