It would have been less of a yawn to watch more fully-developed characters and plotting. More substance and less midair kicks. Go to Full Review

Ronnie M 10/07/2024 The martial arts and storyline are incredible. See more camille l 01/20/2021 N'attendez pas de Butterfly & Sword qu'il vous conte une histoire simple et bien racontée. En revanche, le film de Michael Mak est une avalanche de combats plus ou moins bien filmés, mais toujours assez dynamiques, avec une propension à enchaîner plongées et contre-plongées sans arrêt. N'est certes pas Tsui Hark qui veut, mais Michael Mak s'en rapproche pas mal ici. On peut néanmoins regretter que Donnie Yen et Michelle Yeoh soient beaucoup trop en retrait au profit d'une bluette pas forcément très intéressante entre Tony Leung & Joey Wong. Mais Butterfly & Sword reste un divertissement très honnête à défaut d'être véritablement mémorable. See more 08/07/2014 Very.underated but was pretty good See more don s 05/05/2014 Mundane martial arts movie that has all the beautiful colors and fabrics and the flying action moves of the more famous movies of this genre, but doesn't put them together with a good story; it is all just window dressing over opaque glass. Even the acting is less than engaging. Quite disappointing. See more 08/11/2013 Badass swordsplay fighting , future martial arts movies should be made like this !
