Legend of Zhao Yun

I rarely get a chance to see contemporary Chinese action films so coming across Legend of Zhao Yun was a chance not to be missed. After his entire village is eradicated by a rebellious warlord, Zhao Yun becomes involved with trying to take revenge by using the highly developed fighting skills that he's tried to put aside for a life of peace. After he is almost killed by a poisoned arrow, the wife of the leader of three brothers, who realize that the warlord they were serving is as tyrannical and vicious as the king he usurped, saves his life and Zhao Yun swears allegiance to them. Directed by Ye Qingyun, no cinematic boundaries are being challenged, but the limited budget is put to good use and the fight scenes are perfectly adequate to keep ones interest throughout. Cast is fine doing the needful and don't embarrass themselves or the director. A perfectly harmless way to kill an hour and a half but do factor in the customary kung fu type violence if that is not your thing, (although this is mainly a sword and spear joint).
