Director Chu Yuan (Chor Yuen) has been hailed as the premier screen interpreter of famed author Ku Lung's martial arts novels, and this is one of his best. This exciting tale of two rival swordsmen in imperial China vying with a power-hungry villain for possession of the dangerous "Peacock Dart" showcases brilliantly choreographed fights, glorious settings, superb cinematography, exceptional mise-en-scene, and a strong cast. It all leads to a final showdown that stands out as a highpoint in kung fu cinema.
