Beautiful but boring. One interesting thing about the movie is that for most of it we have no idea who these characters are. We never know how sincere or duplicitous the characters are being because they are all playing a role. In addition, the background of political revolution is pure window dressing that is meant to be inconsequential in the face of the more important love story. These two factors stopped me from latching on to any narrative element of the film.

Like Hero before it I'm surprised by how invested I was in the story. I came for the martial arts, where it certainly delivered both in choreography and how beautiful the film is, but the cherry on top was that I found the plot both interesting and heartfelt. This is more romance than Hero was, but because of that the final fight was actually really emotional and brutal. But even if you just judge it based on how wuxia it is, it succeeds admirably.
