Set in ancient China, Zeng Jing is a skilled assassin who finds herself in possession of a mystical Buddhist monk's remains. She begins a quest to return the remains to its rightful resting place, and thus places herself in mortal danger because a team of assassins is in a deadly pursuit to possess the remains which holds an ancient power-wielding secret.
At first, to be honest, I thought the movie was going to be a bit silly (a magician? Really?), but it won me over against all odds. The story is enjoyable and the fight choreography is not bad at all. Notable for being directed by the acclaimed film maker John Woo (A Better Tomorrow, The Killer, Hard Boiled). Great fun. Oh, and the magician is awesome.
