The 1st one to this trilogy is Legend of the Condor heroes. I liked it a lot. It was funny and had a great story line. I haven't seen the other versions but this is one should be a definite watch. The 2nd one to the trilogy is Romance/Return of the Condor Heroes. I liked the 2014 version a lot even though most people gave it a bad review. I've seen both Romance and Return of the Condor Heroes and both had its pros and cons.
