If David Chiang Da Wei is in it, I will watch it. Even if it's slow to get to the point, like this movie is. Da Wei is Chun Chu, a retired swordsman called upon to assassinate The Duke (Wong Chung) as part of a revenge plot by Mater Wu (Ko Keung) and The Duke's nephew, Kwang (Danny Lee Sau-Yin). Chun Chu's trains so long for the mission, he has a 5yo son with Yan-Yan (Shih Szu) when the day finally arrives. Things goes horribly awry, mainly due to the extreme nervousness of Kwang. The assassination is carried out, but at a very high cost for Chun Chu and Yan-Yan.
