I've never been a big QT fan, but I gave this a try. Not his best work by a long shot. I can suspend my disbelief when I see supernatural powers, but the conglomeration of westerners in feudal China and the way the Chinese characters spoke to each other in American urban style was just too much for me to suspend disbelief. I kept being reminded that I was watching a movie that was an amalgamation of other films instead of an original piece of work. It just didn't work for me. But if you like seeing cartoonishly gratuitous violence, such as eyeballs zooming at the camera, then go for it. Oh, and also get a life.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I must admit, my boyfriend wanted me to go see this movie with him. Im very open minded to his preferance for action and martial arts films but this movie was awful.
No, it was gawd awful. I was actually impressed that RZA, after being in the music scene, transitioned to film and both wrote and directed this movie --but I was let down.
The art direction was good, the fight scenes held your attention but the first 45 minutes were agonizingly slow. So slow, I saw a couple leave (the theater barely had 20 people) and I would have joined them but I was upset we spent $20.
I turned to my boyfriend 45minutes into the movie and said Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu couldnt save this. At first the movie seemed deliberately cheesy and silly but towards the middle of the story line I couldnt tell if this was being serious or not.
I wouldnt even say wait until DVD. I dont even think its worth that. Im sure it was a stepping stone for RZA. The movie flowed fine, but the plot was terrible.
Pros nice cinematography, good actors
Cons terrible plot/storyline
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Loved this movie! Not only did it remind me of the old Martial Arts films, it was even better. Better special effects. Better dialogue, the acting was superb! How can you go wrong with Lucy Liu and Academy Award winner Russell Crowe, who were both fantastic? And the story line (or plot) was consistent and made sense to the end. Byron Mann was awesome! He was flamboyant, yet sinister!
No voice-overs and no subtitles - Yes! I am hoping that a PG-13 version comes to DVD, so that my boys can see this - they would love it. I want to see this movie again!
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, great action
Yes, I recommend this movie.
