Viewing Notes

As a fan of Ti Lung and most Shaw Brothers productions, I’ve been wanting to watch more recently. The Magic Blade (1976) is definitely one of the better examples combining both as I adore Lung in the hero role (he has a charisma about him suited for it). Really enjoyed everything about this flick as both wushu & choreography is top-notch as hero & villains fight for the powerful Peacock Dart. Highly recommended!
