En must see soon film, det er en tribute til Bruce Lee, og omhandler den berømte Japanesiske okkupasjonen av shanghai, som var for noen tiår siden!
One of the Jet Li's beloved and best films he has taken part in, awesome fighting scenes and fine plot, highly recommended.

Just a series of awesome martial arts set pieces. Avoid the dubbed version though.
