I realized I'm just a fan of these historical drama/action, live-action Dynasty Warriors films. If they get the basics right, I tend to enjoy them quite a bit. I like seeing crazy, inventive martial arts action, nice visuals and really, the story comes after all that. Luckily, this movie went even farther beyond just getting it right to being truly awesome, with some really inspired action scenes. A lot of fun, and interesting even when the fighting isn't going on.

The shooting and camera work overall was stunning. The fighting scenes were mostly brilliantly done. But why the story have to be so good for nothing? There was a lot Western storytelling, only instead of firing hand guns they've got arrows and swords and martial arts. The hero supposed not to fool around with girls. Not to fell in love with at least.

I could watch Donnie puke blood all day.
