The biggest problem is the script, the love story just drags on and on for nearly 2/3 of the film, too many flashbacks, some key characters just came out of nowhere, the lead actress just has one facial reaction for the entire film. I don't blame her though with a script like this, it gives the actors nothing to act on.
However, the film sure looks pretty with some stunning locations, excellent sound and CGI sequences. The same cannot be said for the sword fights I must admit, this is one of the film main attraction and yet it failed to live up to expectations. The earlier fights are quite good, the stand out is the one with 2 brother in the forest. Toward the end and especially the finale (very lame!), it failed completly in the action department.
The one film to compare this with is Shadowless Sword which is far more superior in term of story, action,etc
So give this a rent and if you must, buy it just to show off your big plasma/LCD screen (I did!)
