The Last Bladesman/ 關雲長 (2011)

Rating:	★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Action & Adventure

Caught the sneak-preview, as my friend wanted to watch this. A good action flick, yet the story didn't makes much sense. The fight scenes are superbly choreographed, and there are genuinely funny moments.

But the motivation of the beloved folk-hero Guan Yu are not entirely clear; and the added elements of a fictional love interest is too much for a Three-kingdom fan for me to stomach. I found myself more drawn toward the character of Cao-cao in this show. A tough subject-matter to be translated onto big-screen.
