4.0 out of 5 stars Greek Tradition, November 6, 2001

By 

Cornelius Kappabani (Germany) - See all my reviews

This review is from: What Price Survival? (DVD)

This isn't an ordinary swordplay film like Swordsman, 13 Cold blooded Eagles or Blade of Fury ect., it's more like one of the great Greek tragedies, the haunting tale of a young man who is at least responsible for the death of almost everyone he loved, the story of lives crumbeling because of the trickery of one man.
Great acting and a beautiful though cold photography drag you down into the Maelstrom of this great masterpiece!
Besides: in this movie Shaw Brothers veteran David Chiang gives his come back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great movie with incredible cinematography, January 29, 2000

By 

Chicago Pete (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: What Price Survival? (DVD)

This movie won't thrill the people looking only for fight films but for those who enjoy the full range of Hong Kong cinema should watch this. Based loosely on the One-Armed swordsman story, it is a tale of love, honor, revenge and tragedy set with great acting and a powerful storyline. For those who saw "The Blade" will find this a great movie to compare with since it takes from the same roots.
