Nice choreography, especially in the first half of the series, sympathetically sketched characters and the world - but that's the problem. It's an "approximate spectacle". Incomplete, but it's no problem to enjoy it as a solid B-movie glued together from a number of more famous and better elements.

This has got off to a very smooth start so far. The biggest attraction is the star Daniel Wu, who gives his best in fights. The choreography is top-notch, with amazing cinematography, visuals, and editing, all kinds of limbs are broken in incredible amounts and most importantly it's R-rated, with no shortage of shards in eyes or spears in stomachs. Wu is a real machine here breaking ligaments, arms, breaking a guy's legs against a tree and breaking one guy so hard his thumbs end up near his head. The final sword fight in the rain will remind you of the gem 7 Grandmasters. Story-wise the series also seems interesting, I like the appropriate time period and the young boy is apparently surrounded by supernatural martial arts forces – we have a lot to look forward to, you can feel the enthusiasm for martial arts. The second and third episodes raised the bar very high. The story unfolds brilliantly, the action surpasses almost everything seen so far. An incredibly blood orgy, over-the-top choreographed fights that make me scream as if I were at the Super Bowl, almost unbearable. My new favourte! Along with Banshee, the best action series ever.
