06/04/2013 this is one of the best chinese films i have ever seen its full of action and love very romantic and spiteful See more 11/11/2012 FANTASTIC Korean swordplay/martial arts film. It has a reputation as being underated for some reason, but it smashed box office records and started a trend in Korea for this kind of film that was subsequently killed by Musa. Beautiful, moving, great music and brilliant photography. See more 01/07/2012 It's rather messy. At some point I lost the whole point of the movie. But the ending :'( See more 08/14/2011 Some occasional display of swordplay brillance can't quite save this middling wuxia drama from Korea. See more 05/17/2011 Rated this high for the love story....pales in comparison to HK martial arts productions but enjoyable. See more 04/20/2011 <i>Bichunmoo</i> has its ups and downs, but director Kim Young-jun does more than enough to surpass mediocrity.<p>The story is pretty deep in terms of love, loyalty, and revenge. It is also quite lengthy at just under 2 hours, and despite the times where the film gets dramatic, it also gets momentary, so a lot does happen throughout the movie.</p><p>On the other side of the love story is the action and an enjoyable watch these scenes are. The swordplay is composed of some great choreography which lead to some fast-paced fights; however, the editing and camera angles are a little bit of a letdown, as they are a bit erratic. The fights are also a little brief and that leaves a feeling of wanting more.</p><p>Shin Hyeon-jun comes across as monotone, and although that does match his character, it makes the likes of Jeong Jin-yeong and the lovely Kim Hee-seon much more amusing to watch. There are also a number of other characters that may have excelled with a little more screen time.</p><p><i>Bichunmoo</i> isn't perfect, but for a dramatic martial arts film out of Korea, it is a worthwhile viewing.</p> See more Read all reviews
