 Great If you want to see Tai Chi and Bagua in a movie November 18, 2008
This is basically an edited-down to movie length version of the TV series and therefore suffers from several continuity problems from a story point of view. Having said that, the fight scenes more than make up for the patchy story and if like me you have been longing for some more authentic looking tai chi and bagua in a movie then this is well worth getting hold of.
 What more can a fan want? November 5, 2008
This movie has definitely moved into my top 10 movies of all time. A lot of people complain about the photography and how the movie is shot, but I love it. It makes the movie seen very real.
The acting is awesome, not too many corny actors and jokes no one really gets. I was blown away by the acting and the humor of the movie. The fight scenes in this movie take on a whole new high. The movie does a great job with giving you background education on Tai Chi.
I definitely love this more than the Jet Li version which is still good as well. If you are thinking about this movie think no longer and just get it, it is that good, so good I decided to give it my 1st review on Amazon.
 abridged too far January 8, 2008

If you can get over the photography style of Chinese television, and assuming you enjoy kung fu flicks in the first place, you will likely dig this. The photography bugs the crap out of me but I think I'm in the minority. I can tolerate it. What really makes it work though is the choreography of director Yuen Woo Ping. Way less wires than he usually employs, which is a big plus in my book. If only he could merge this type of choreography with cameras that shoot movies made to be shown on the big screen instead of this videotaped look.
This is the condensed version of a TV series that has Wu Jing, in an "old-school" time frame, wanting to learn Tai Chi from a man named Chan, who cannot teach outside of his extended family. The women in his family cannot learn either. This is why Chan passes his daughter off as a dude. She helps Wu Jing learn by having him hide and watch her father practice and teach. Billy Chow then kidnaps Chan and a whole lotta fights ensue.
Wu Jing and Billy Chow are both very good. As is the older gentleman who played Chan. I have become quite a Wu Jing fan recently. Dragon Dynasty will release "Fatal Contact" later this month and I suggest you see it. Not much on plot, but the fights in that are some of the best I've seen. He's reason enough to see this one as well.

A must for Martial Arts enthusiasts October 17, 2007
Though the movie is a patch-job of an earlier TV series, it's hugely enjoyable. I gave it 4 stars for two reasons :
1. The cut-n-paste job doesn't have the sheen of a regular production film and at a couple of points in the movie one can tell that there must have been something else to follow but has been cut.
and more importantly,
2. Some of the brilliant fight scenes have been cut. I know this because I have watched the fight sequences on you-tube and when I was expecting a certain move, I saw something else. MOVES WERE CUT. :-(
That said, for all you martial arts film buffs, I would slot this one in the same category as Master Killer (aka The 36th Chamber of Shaolin). So it's a must see movie ..... I'd even go so far as to say that it's a must have movie.
Enjoy !!
a view of T'ai Chi May 7, 2007
This film attempts to show the development of Yang style T'ai Chi from its progenitor - Chen style. A difficult thing to do, it neverthe less succeeds fairly well. The "flying" is kept to a minimum, and the ground fighting techinques, including a lot of chin na, are shown with some clarity and realism. The film also attempts to show the use of T'ai Chi against other styles of wu shu. All in all, a good attempt.
