Well,based on the earlier reviews, I expected a little more from this film. It wasn't bad, and anytime we get to see Yu Rong Guang show his stuff is a good thing, still I was somewhat underwhelmed.

The plot is loosely based on the story of the history of Karate. Which I hadnt seen before but I feel there were a lot of poetic licensing taking place here. Somewhat silly at times and other times just not believable. Again it wasn't terrible just average.

I'm not a big fan of Cynthia Khan's. This performance didn't win me over any. She uses her trademark smirk as an acting tool countless times throughout the film. Unfortunately there's more to acting than that. Yu Rong Guang does a solid job as Wuwechimatao. I think he's a better actor he's given credit for. As an earlier reviewer pointed out, the young girl whose name is unfortunately unknown to me really steals the show. Her personality is infectious and it really comes across the screen well.

The Martial Art scenes are by far this movies strong point. Especially anything involving Mr.Yu. Even Ms.Khan does a decent job in her scenes. They did a good job of showing the Pirates fighting a different style than the chinese.

Overall, not a bad film. With some good action and an OK watch for 90 minutes. Although it's not something I'm going to look to rewatch anytime soon.
