From: leemyis, Date: 2010-02-11 17:00:07 Comment: It's the best Heaven Sword Dragon Sabre, even though it very short, but the plot are really good. Jet Li is just perfect for the role. All the female leads are also very pretty too...
From: Ranger039, Date: 2009-01-14 13:03:23 Comment: This was an execellant movie. To bad they didn't do partII.
From: Ojets, Date: 2008-07-28 03:36:18 Comment: The best Wuxia movie of all time.The syances are great,the story captures the theme of the long series.Its a must see again and again for those who loves to be absorbed in the martial art world.Phenomenal,a wuxia classic.
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:39:27 Comment: Another awesome movie that die hard fans have to see. It's a shorter version of the twenty something volume longer series but does a nice job of getting the story line. Although this version doesn't tell the entire story, it's got some hot women in it. Is that enough for you? Qing!

From: dashel, Date: 2010-02-05 12:57:03 Comment: There are many wuxia movies that are favored among females like myself. This one is one of them - although not quite as good as some of the other wuxia romance movies
From: Rai, Date: 2009-03-06 12:02:58 Comment: well as for me i hate the ending,Jay died!!!!i dunno maybe this is good for other but as he died in this i hav not watched for a 2nd time zzzzz
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:42:09 Comment: C'mon now.. I'd rather watch Titanic than watch this movie again. This movie sucks you in with its flashy trailers and big names but in the end, you'll wish you had your 3 hours back so you could find the director of this movie and punish him for deceiving you!
From: IronEagle, Date: 2007-11-06 10:13:59 Comment: film had more drama than action but was nicely done.
From: Brysen, Date: 2011-07-25 13:09:33 Comment: AFAIC that's the best anwesr so far!
From: Jason, Date: 2011-06-11 12:43:43 Comment: The best flying swordsman movie ever made. One of the best wuxia stories of all time. This is not a kung fu movie, this is an EPIC.
From: Ranger039, Date: 2009-01-14 13:04:31 Comment: I agree with you Bro. CHen.
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:33:17 Comment: This movie and the trilogy (Swordsman II and The East is Red) rocks! Yeah, the movie doesn't have the cleanest action scenes and movie quality won't look good on your fancy HD/Blueray set up but if you are a die hard fan, this is a classic.
From: Hero, Date: 2007-12-03 19:18:15 Comment: movie here very boring
From: Kayden, Date: 2011-07-25 12:57:28 Comment: This wbestie makes things hella easy.
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:37:29 Comment: This movie has Jet Li as Ling Wu Chung if that really matters to you. Part of the classic trilogy. It's old but so is every wise man. Qing!
From: IronEagle, Date: 2007-11-06 10:10:19 Comment: i liked this one of the swordsman triology. the first was rather boring and the third (the east is red) wasnt that good.
From: huangrong, Date: 2011-05-15 01:35:19 Comment: great movie or is this the series??? well either way it was amazing!!!!
From: dashel, Date: 2010-02-05 13:07:03 Comment: Beautiful wuxia fantasy film - artistic constrasts, romance, cool fight scenes
From: species 521, Date: 2008-04-21 08:35:44 Comment: great movie with a great story. a wuxia plot with dramatic love and emotions, plus excellent fights...!!
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:44:02 Comment: The girl is super hot.. Zhang Zhi or however you spell her name. So it's worth watching just for her. But be warned, it's full of dudes otherwise.
From: HeavenlyDragon, Date: 2007-12-03 19:20:42 Comment: i agree, good visuals but story was very suspect
From: gino, Date: 2007-11-04 17:03:58 Comment: GREAT visuals! but a weak story really takes away from the whole movie. especially the end.
From: Xadrian, Date: 2011-12-19 21:16:02 Comment: An answer from an expert! Thanks for conrtiubintg.
From: Johnny Li, Date: 2011-12-13 04:45:42 Comment: Who are the dumb people? lol
Great film!
From: dashel, Date: 2010-02-05 12:59:51 Comment: Once again there are women who enjoy wuxia romance movies - not just about the gore, but the artistic, aesthetic, and romatic story and action. This movie is awesome!
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:48:12 Comment: One of the best movies made recently. Well received by westerners. One thing I never get is that when women dress and pretend to be guys in these movies, I can still tell she's a chick. Can't you? Worth your time to watch if you haven't already.
From: IronEagle, Date: 2007-11-06 10:17:19 Comment: are you kidding me? whoever voted this 1 star should be shot :) great film even though if it got too popular among the dumb people

They are soon drawn into a conflict which centres around the mysterious man with the golden snake sword - an incredibly powerful magical weapon. Golden Snake Man is seeking revenge on the castle of the Wan family, but Wan has married his former lover. The Five Poison Sect of fighting (and flying) women have entered into an uneasy alliance with the forces of the Manchu Master Wu to steal the golden snake sword. Wan's daughter is torn between her father and her love of the constable. The constable must decide between his brotherly love for the Golden Snake Man and his sense of justice. Meanwhile a blind old man seeks to return the powerful Sword Stained With Royal Blood to the son of Marshal Yuen.

From: jetlaw, Date: 2010-11-03 13:06:51 Comment: This film as so many plot twists that it keeps you in your seat all through the movie. Gu Long, the writer and Chu Yuen the directors are masters. If you have never seen any Chu Yuen movies you have to start, he is really the master of Wuxia films.
From: Cheyanne, Date: 2011-12-20 02:37:46 Comment: This is way better than a brick & mortar esatlbsihment.
From: Rope, Date: 2011-12-17 15:12:28 Comment: You've really helped me udnerstand the issues. Thanks.
From: zzzz, Date: 2009-04-09 19:44:10 Comment: this movis is zzzzzz
From: Scott, Date: 2008-08-12 02:10:05 Comment: Yeah.... this one was kind of slow and I honestly couldnt really get into it too much.

From: Cesare, Date: 2008-01-19 09:43:15 Comment: "Ashes of Time" is an acquired taste in that it takes multiple viewings to truly and fully appreciate the film. However, I enjoyed my first viewing of this film immensely. Not everyone's cup of tea, that's for sure - it's pretty much a "love it or hate it" kind of film I guess.
From: IronEagle, Date: 2007-11-06 10:20:21 Comment: this movie is so boring what a waste of time. some say you need several viewings to understand it but they say that just to justify to themselves why they wasted so much time.
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 12:52:13 Comment: Ok, whatever anyone says about this movie, see it for yourself. Only then can you know your true self.
From: HeavenlyDragon, Date: 2007-12-03 19:22:15 Comment: you can skip this one and go directly to #2
From: Ojets, Date: 2010-03-05 01:10:43 Comment: This is a classic.It needs a remake with the same cast including Donnie Yen.Vincent Zhao should also chip in,amids jin chu hua
From: gino, Date: 2007-11-04 16:59:44 Comment: A remake of a classic movie, also itself being a classic.
An official is framed and executed, members of the wuxia underworld are tasked to bring his kids past the border where they will no longer be chased. The problem is can they survive the last post at Dragon Inn.
From: Cesare, Date: 2008-01-19 09:46:14 Comment: This would be a perfect piece were it not for the exploding ninjas and the final fight. Damian Lau and Norman Chu are both great, though...
From: Johnny Li, Date: 2011-12-13 04:50:13 Comment: Enjoyed. Though not as good as expected.
From: dashel, Date: 2010-02-05 13:02:43 Comment: loved the wuxia fantasy fighting and romance - a beautiful movie
From: Ranger039, Date: 2009-01-14 13:11:42 Comment: I disagree. This is a great movie. It told a story without the normal blood and guts scences. The setting was captivating. It grabbed you and didn't let go until the end. Great wire works by all.
From: Brother Chen, Date: 2008-01-25 13:04:20 Comment: You knew Brother Chen would not give face to this movie. When I go back to Shaolin, I will leave this movie behind along with the jiang hu. It is dead to me. Weigh my words carefully before watching this.
From: IronEagle, Date: 2007-11-06 10:11:19 Comment: disappointing film. was expecting something much greater considering zhang ziyi was in it, a big let down coming off of crouching tiger
From: gino, Date: 2007-11-04 17:02:48 Comment: At first watching this film failed for me in so many ways. But on the second watching, I realized why there was so much hype.
From: Veanna, Date: 2011-12-19 23:34:17 Comment: That insight's just what I've been looknig for. Thanks!
