Terrible, Horrible,Atrocious, Awful are some of the words that can be used to describe this movie.I was actually excited when I got this movie having seen Storm Riders and having read some familiarity with the comics. I actually thought the bad reviews were exaggerated but I was wrong. This movie is that bad.The acting is bad, Ekin cannot act and in this movie he is more wooden then ever, the story line makes no sense and the CGI.... whoever said the CGI was good must've been living in a cave. The CGI is over (and badly) done. Part of what makes CGI good is how it blends in with the actors and makes everything look realistic. In this movie the CGI looks totally fake. Add the really bad fighting choreography and the combination is laughably bad, actually not laughably but jaw droppingly bad.The actors are not fighting as much as they are dancing, badly and in slow motion, to the accompaniment of bad CGI.Give this a miss, I wish I did instead of wasting my money for a DVD thats now on its way to a landfill.

I expected an epic tale of some kungfu heroes versus the tyrannical Japanese Imperial conquerors, in the modus of "Ip Man" but what I got was a CGI nightmare. Seriously I watched for 27 minutes just hoping that the special effects would stop long enough for some real kungfu fighting. It was so disappointing. Even the special effects were so wild and out of it. The director tried to piece together CGI with pseudo-anime style scenes, stitched together with a real boring plot line. I do not dislike CGI; don't get me wrong. I liked Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon although the bamboo forest flight scenes were a little corny, LOVE Kung Fu Hustle, with the guys who shoot darts off of their Chinese zithers and the lady with her Dyna-yell, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera; but this movie is a STINKER.

I waited years for this sequel and I finally got it and I am so disappointed. It was basically 300: the martial arts movie. It was so loaded with cgi from backgrounds to character animations. it had a weak story that wasn't endearing like the first, and it was missing the action of the first movie as well as some of the more interesting 'powers'.the original had the feel of a video game come to life and done very well. This one was like the goth version. it was dark, disjointed and didn't flow the way it should have.what can I say? the reviewers before me pretty much nailed it and I hate to repeat. So there it is. the third movie is coming, I hope it is better than this one!

I didn't expect this long-awaited sequel to have the grandiose scope of the first and so I was not disappointed. Instead, I found the comic book look-alike GCI effect simply great to watch. The plot is simple and functional: defeat, regroup, revenge. I particularly like the asymmetry in the separate efforts of Wind and Cloud to enhance their respective power. The secondary plot which takes over at the end will look familiar to those who remember director TSUI Hark's "Zu Mountain" (1983), as Ekin Cheng's Wind is a repackaging of his namesake Cheng Siu-chow's Ting Yin. Aaron Kwok looks good, while the two women's (Charlene Choi and TANG Yan) role in this movie is more or less to look pretty. Nicholas Tse, while under-used here, will likely come back as the chief villain if they ever make a Fung Wan III. If they do, I wouldn't mind seeing it.
