Call of Heroes thrills throughout in its tale of skilled martial artists, who take a stand to protect their village against a ruthless army. In 1914, after the collapse of China's Qing dynasty, Yang Kenan (Sean Lau Mad Detective) is appointed as guardian to defend the rural village of Pucheng. After Yang arrests the son of a sadistic warlord, Cao Shaolun (Louis Koo Flash Point), the warlord s army threatens to bring death and destruction. As the odds for peace lessen and the pressure mounts for Yang to release the murderous captive, a stirring tale of heroic resistance unfolds. (Cine Asia)

Perhaps the plot is a bit simplistic, and the villain is terribly dull and contrived, but this is the kind of film you want to watch for its action scenes, and they are simply breathtaking. Hong Kong shows that the most beautiful fight scenes can only come from Asia. And it works great, even with digital effects in places.
