This is a love story in a Chinese epic form set in war situation . The photography is expansive and has some rather serene sequences , a HD large screen TV would add greatly to the pleasure of watching this film . The films premise is straight forward , it is a story of love and sacrifice . Why would one , or should one watch this film ? The photography for one , the sets and the grandeur of the production , and that Chinese flavor that makes the difference .

If your in need of a movie with a lot of drama, sprinkled in with some action and romance this is the movie for you. Showing insight into a young lady who becomes empress with the death of her father, turmoil, and destruction. Her world around her is crumbling.

The empress learns what it means to be responsible for the little people. The love story is where the empress learns that. The general sacrifices for his country. First in announcing the empress as newly in charge, so the nephew doesn't gain power. Second through training the empress, and helping keep her alive. And finally on the battle field.

Being that donnie yen is one of my favorite martial arts actor, i though this movie was really good. the story was okay and the fight scenes where serious business.
