I have to say, it was a trailer for the picture that brought me to it, as it's hard to resist the intrigue of those swirling sword umbrellas, which you don't get the full flavor of until seeing how they're deployed as weapons against Yang. Admittedly, the story may be somewhat hard to follow, the near total black and white rendition of the picture getting even murkier in the rain drenched fighting sequences of Jing City. Yet a plan is set in motion for just that very consequence, as a result of behind the scene machinations that involve a commoner who steps in to take the place of the king's commander (Chao Deng in a dual role), and challenge the authority of Yang Cang.

A king who holds sway over his city kingdom of Pei by virtue of an alliance with rival Yang Cang (Jun Hu), stands in opposition to virtually every member of his inner council, who want to wage war and and take back the city for themselves.
