As yo expect from a commercial film. Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10

Me personnally have not been a fan of Daniel Lee's efforts; Star Runner was a mess that used a ridiculous amount of cuts during its fight scenes and Dragon Squad failed to delivered anything else apart from a standard action picture that you would associate with a hollywood production even with all the talents attached.

Expectations of this delivering, were low for me but to my surprise i actually found it rather entertaining not because it does anything new but because it actually does everthing you expect from a commecial war epic; heroic figure - check, brotherly love - check, over the top war scenes - check. And this is where it succeeds everything happens so fast that it does not pretend to be anything else - its not a work of art.

Action wise they are well choreographed by the legendary Sammo hung who puts a well performance in the acting department but for the action he does not get to let loose. Instead it is reserved for Andy Lau's character to deliver and he does it well. Again the audience is given the quick cuts and hand held cameras but that has become expected from Daniel Lee.

Another plus is the fact that the picture contains brief cameos from a number of familiar faces that are fun to spot; Damien Lau, Ti Lung, Vaness Wu, Andy On Yu Ruang Guang and more.

(This review comes from some one who has never played Dynasty Warriors so i do not know if it is faithful to the sourse material or not)

Ok Customer Review Rated Bad 4 - 4 out of 10

I have to first concur with the person who said this movie was better than War Lords, yes it is. Pretty much the movie is about an ordinary man who moved up the ranks to General. He risked everything he had for a cause he believed in. If you enjoy movies that evoke passion and fearlessness in times of despair then watch this movie.

Not for fans of ROTK Customer Review Rated Bad 2 - 2 out of 10

Speaking as a fan of the ROTK novels and Dynasty Warrior games I was looking forward to see an Andy Lau movie with Zhao Yun as the main character. Sadly the film throws any semblance of accuracy to history or the novel straight out the window. Down playing Zilong's connection with Liu Bei and ignoring his history as a general in Gongsun Zan's army the film makes it's own history. All of this could be forgiven had the action set-pieces been any good, but they weren't. Fights often used the Ridley Scott style low frame-rate approach and a camera shot hardly ever captured delivery and contact of the moves.
Hopefully John Woo's Red Cliff will do the Sangoku period more justice.

Okay Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10

I had actually watched this movie before it is released on disc and I find this movie okay. Much better compared to The Warlords. Although these movies are set in China, the subtitle and language is based in Mandarin. The story is very straightforward and it could have been longer. I would describe this as fine.
