YesAsia Editorial Description

Blazing action delivered in style - Sword in the Moon!

A new Eastern film wave set in ancient times is on the rise after Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Musa the Warrior, and Hero, Sword in the Moon offers viewers more sensational martial arts battles that will make you long for more...

The epic tale revolves around the two elite warriors Ji-hwan and Kyu-yup who turn from loyal friends to defenders of different parties. Both pursuing the goal to aid the poor and oppressed, the former companions are led by fate to a duel over life and death that only one of them can walk away from as lone victor. Rich in opulent shots and powerful aesthetic martial arts fights, Sword in the Moon was one of the hailed audience favorites at the Cannes Film Festival.

Director Kim Ui-seok is known for films like Holiday in Seoul and I'm a man with a gun. For Sword in the Moon he teamed up Cho Jae-hyun (Bad Guy) and Choi Min-soo (Story of Man) to craft a stunning silver screen hit quite unlike his earlier works.

　　朝鮮末年，朝廷成立了一支名為「清風明月」的特別部隊來保護朝廷中重要人物。奎葉與志煥是「清風明月」部隊中最出色的成員，兩人惺惺相識，漸漸成為了好友。可是，隨著朝廷內部分裂，在形勢所迫之下，奎葉被下令要殺死自己的師父金印和好友志煥。當奎葉把志煥推落山崖時，志煥留下了一條木魚給奎葉作為禮物。

　　五年後，奎葉在軍中漸有名氣此時突然殺出了一名刺客，而該刺客所持兵器上竟刻有「清風明月」四個字……

　　In this sweeping and visually stunning martial art epic set in 17th century Korea, an elite group of Imperial guards is formed to protect the most important officials. When the group's two top warriors Yun and Choi-sworn brothers until death--are separated by unforeseen circumstances, they are forced to turn on each other as Choi has become a top assassin of government officials, and Yun is assigned to eliminate him.

　　Gorgeously shot and with balletic fights in the elegant style of HERO and CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, SWORD IN THE MOON is an evocative swordplay saga filled with scenes of astonishing beauty and martial arts fight sequences of enormous power.

Trying too hard Customer Review Rated Bad 4 - 4 out of 10

Beautifully done but it felt like the director was trying to be so artistic that it took away from the story & even the depth of the characters themselves. You finish the movie with a furrowed brow, a touch of confusion, a shrug & maybe a huff of disappointment. I didn't mark anything significant with the swordplay either other than the semi magnitude of the two opposing parties. However, not even the flashback of how the two characters started as brothers didn't make an impact on the connection audiences should have felt for them. Overall, disappointing for the quality of film.
