Low profile but sharp
A Zhang Yimou produced revenge story, filled with hidden tensions.
It is a surprise that this film has been skipped by many of the douban movie fans.
The film doesn't have big cast, but has a great story.
Posited in China's warlord period, the backdrop gives the film an exceptional story telling environment.
A predictable story with an unpredictable ending.
Repentance and forgiveness rule.
Definitely a recommended watch.
