Kao has purchased a new wife, but an enemy has paid her more money to kill him. Kao must recruit a pair of swordsmen to help defend himself and his family from his ruthless enemy. But Kao has his dark side as well.
The high-flying action sequences have gotten a lot of ink, but again, if you've seen earlier works like John Woo's Last Hurrah for Chivalry (1978) or Ronny Yu's The Bride with White Hair (1993), there's not a lot here to boggle your eyes or mind.
