This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I found this movie to be very entertaining,it catches a grip on you from the start,i didn't know what it was about i only knew Wenzhuo Zhao was in it,i have followed his films since 1993 when i saw Fong sai yuk for the first time,i think he is a great martial artist/actor. First off this is not a kung fu movie so don't expect great fights like true legend or the blade,but it is a good thriller,you can clearly see that Zhao have evolved to a charismatic and talented actor not only is he good at martial arts but he can actually act,sadly many westerners have probably not seen the great TV-series his been in because they are mostly without English subtitles,however it was a surprise to see him in a role like this. A solid thriller with good acting imo,it surely kept me interested in its 1h.38 min runtime.
