Competent on all fronts but never dazzling, it should please genre devotees but won't cross over to a broader audience.

A spectacularly miscalculated historical epic.

Rated: 1/4

Los Angeles Times

A character-driven battle epic that plays more like a brightly rendered action-adventure than a starchy history lesson.

While the first hour is rather sluggish, Gordon Chan's film eventually comes good to deliver the exciting finale that the set-up deserves.

Rated: 3/5

The sustained intensity of the action is thoroughly thrilling, even if the narrative often feels cut up and compacted.

Rated: 3.5/5

I enjoyed this one as I thought it was a good story along with good battle action to keep you entertained with the story of Japanese pirates invading Chinese coastlines.

Movie lacks depth. Weak character development with haphazard scenes. Action choreography was good. What a waste.

It's sooo Chinese. Propaganda and what not. 20k versus 1000 Chinese and guess who wins? The movie is historically inaccurate however the costumes, acting, martial arts are excellent.
