Overall, both the action and story of this film was great. I also enjoyed the details in the audio. However, the pace of the movie occasionally felt slow. In the end, I would still highly recommend this movie to those who enjoy martial arts films.

Oh, Donnie Yen is Sky. This movie was six years before Ip Man.
The use of water sounds is great.
