It begins with everyone sword fighting during the opening credits. The story opens with Chang Pei-Shan is unhappy he has not become rich in the escort business. Lo Lieh is happy with the status quo. Chang Pei-Shan is also unhappy the chief's daughter has eyes only for Lo Lieh.The movie has the expected high production values of Shaw Brothers so the sets and costumes are fabulous. The fights are almost all weapons and mostly swords. Some weapons have tricky modifications added. I never liked this because I practice martial arts and consider the weapons of China in their historical and martial aspects. I can also see how fans watching the movie got a kick out of the tricks. Overall, I find nothing that raises the movie above average for the year and genre.
