14 Blades (2010)

Somewhere between the big-budget wuxia films of recent years (e.g. House of Flying Daggers) and the early 90's style wuxia that drew so many of us into HK cinema, but somehow rather flat and unsatisfying. The story is kinda dumb, it's all too ponderous and though it looks pretty it failed to keep my attention much of the time. Disappointing.
