I love period/costume dramas with sword fighting – the type where you fly about completely defying the laws of physics (and there was a good deal of that here) so it was right up my alley. There is a good balance of elements – intrigue, sword fighting, battle for the throne and of course, a touch of romance. The movie is also visually appealing with actors and actresses who are handsome and beautiful with intricate costumes and stunning scenery.

However, the ending was rather abrupt and made it feel like this was a pilot with more to come. The movie shows much promise and I’m trusting those that put this together so meticulously are planning a nice long series to satiate my thirst or I will be devastated! Perhaps this is a movie to be fully appreciated only by those who know the game.

Seems unfinished

This movie started well and the CGI is awesome. The story is good except it seems like it’s incomplete. Why was Chiongmae brought to the palace, what happened at the swords game, what happened to the evil crown prince? So many questions. I feel like this movie is a preview to a great series.
Love the costumes used.
If someone knows if this is a series or there’s a part 2 to the movie, kindly let me know. I would appreciate it.
Overall, this is a great movie with exceptional actors playing their part.

Surprisingly entertainment

Loved when wuxia shows, I picked this movie but really didn't have much of an expectation. But who knew?

The storyline is fairly basic. The movie moves through at a good pace as the schemes begin to be exposed. The interactions between the main characters, the exploration of the main character's skills, and the chemistry between the main character and the princess make this show worth watching. The acting from the main characters is pretty good and the actions scenes are well done.

Worth a second watch in my belief.
