“Offering a combination of fighting techniques in an attempt to differentiate itself from Hong Kong martial arts films, this directorial debut from Le Thanh So doesn’t ever rise above the trappings of the genre. Despite an impressive fight sequence, or two, the meager plot and cliché back story techniques have all the earmarks of a low budget buffet.”
