The Good, the Bad and the Deeper Meaning:

• Undoubtedly, the film has some pretty cool Kung Fu moves and action sequence much like any other martial arts film you can find, but sadly the plot is too weak and uninteresting.

• The relationships between the characters are not relatable and there's very little character development.

• The saving grace of the film is its spectacular and stylistic visuals and creative action sequence.

• The film has a few hints of homosexuality and adultery in a very odd and comedic way.
