White Vengeance (2011) (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region All

With the success of Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon, Hong Kong filmmaker Daniel Lee tackles another mind-blowing Chinese historical war epic! In White Vengeance, the acclaimed writer-director offers an intriguing reinterpretation of the Banquet at Hongmen, the decisive incident that took place in the turbulent years of the Chu-Han Contention following the fall of the Qin dynasty some 2,200 years ago. Leon Lai (Forever Enthralled) stars as ambitious rebel leader Liu Bang, who is invited to the banquet hosted by his arch-rival Xiang Yu, played against type by TV idol William Feng (Palace). As the focal point of this intense and thrilling historical tale, the banquet becomes a deadly battle of wits and guts between the two contending heroes and their aides, played by Anthony Wong (Punished), Zhang Hanyu (Assembly), and Jordon Chan (Once a Gangster). In addition, the star-studded cast also boasts the presence of Andy On (True Legend) as Liu Bang's military ally Han Xin, and Crystal Liu (A Chinese Ghost Story) as Xiang Yu's lover Yuji.

In the final years of the Qin dynasty, China is in complete chaos, and whoever takes control of the fallen Qin capital Xianyang will effectively ascend the throne to be the new Emperor. Western Chu's warrior king Xiang Yu is the most prominent candidate to rise to power, while his sworn brother Liu Bang has somewhat reluctantly become another warlord. Although Liu Bang's Han army reaches Xianyang first, he knows that he is no match for the powerful Xiang Yu, so he prudently retreats and pledges allegiance to him. However, Xiang Yu's chief strategist Fan Zeng (Anthony Wong) recognizes Liu Bang's ambitions, and he decides to lay a trap in the guise of a banquet to uproot this threat once and for all. Liu Bang knows the hidden danger, but his loyal advisor Zhang Liang (Zhang Hanyu) urges him to attend the banquet no matter what, or risk being crushed mercilessly by Xiang Yu's mighty forces. Can Liu Bang escape the deadly plot at the banquet, and turn the tide in his favor?

White Vengeance is the turning point in Xiang Yu and Liu Bang's contend for supremacy. At the beginning, Liu Bang is at disadvantage, being threatened by growing crisis. He is inferior to Xiang Yu from all sides. However, Xiang Yu lets Liu off. When they confront with each other again, it becomes a final fight between two equally powerful opponents. At last, Liu Bang beats Xiang Yu and wins the whole country. The reason for Xiang Yu's failure is that he has too much confidence in himself and others. Nevertheless, he still wins the heart of the woman he loves. On the contrary, Liu Bang regrets attending the White Vengeance before his death, because he couldn't trust anyone and lose the woman he loves ever since the White Vengeance. He kills those who have contributed to his success in order to keep his power and position. Without friends and the true love, he could never taste the joy of happiness even though he owns the power.

Good but not perfect Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10

White Vengeance is a swordplay film that takes its time developing its story and characters.I thought it was an elaborate and often lavish epic film.In the heart of the frantic battle scenes lies a thriller that shows characters planning and trying to out wit,manipulate and defeat one another.
The performances,battle sequences,editing and music were done very well.The cinematography was also done well and did remind me of similar shots in previous english epic films such as Braveheart and Lord of the rings trilogy.
The part that I notice weak about the film was infact the female character.In my opinion there was no need to have a female lead.

Other than that the rest of the film was fine.
