Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2019)

It has been almost 20 years since I have watched it. I was 17 at the time,without any particular taste in films and there was a small cinema in the small city of Ioannina in Greece where I was on vacation. I need to add to this point that by that time I had watched many many films regarding kung-fu, mostly old movies with Lee and Chan and these movies were the reason I started practicing martial arts from a young age. So I went to the cinema hoping to watch another Kung Fu movie. Oh boy, I was wrong. This movie is a masterpiece. I have watched it several times ever since. It is so special. It is not about Kung Fu. It is about love,loyalty, living for a higher purpose. I need to say that I only enjoy this movie in Chinese. In English it is not that great to watch because it looks fake.
So take your time and enjoy this great film.
