The Sword

Rating:
Summary: One of the best sword fighting movie ever.....^^
Review: This is one of the best sword fighting movie ever made (1980) and is characterized as the new wave martial arts movie.
The story goes as a new swordsman tries to gain recognition by challenging the best swordsman. At the end he finally achieved his goal and became the best sword fighter, but he also paid with a big price in doing so. You might lose more than what you wishing for!
Patrick Tam only directed a few movie in his career and this one is definitely his best work. The action sequence is one of the best. Fast & bloody and yet graceful. The story is exciting with nice fashionable costumes and a few beautiful women to delight the scene. A must have for sword fighting movie collector.
I am not sure about this DVD. The one I have is a VCD and the picture is scratched and hasn't been restored.
