Viewing Notes

a.k.a. Swordsman 2 - a film I haven’t seen in maybe 10 years. Saw it was on NWI and Brigitte Lin’s name drew me like a magnet. But this film features a trio of excellent women in lead roles (Lin, Michelle Reis, and Rosamund Kwan) who keep the boat afloat. Would love to see a cleaned up version of this in HD. The action is so murky it’s not always easy to follow. And it’s some amazing stuff.
