The Assassin (1993)
Reviewed by: Tonic on 2008-05-16
I actually got this in a DVD trade, I thought it was going to be the Jimmy Wang movie (which I still haven't seen!) of the same name. I realised from the DVD menu this was a different film altogether.

Some of the concept was effective and one of the early scenes in the film was quite harrowing, but the pacing was awful. The film was a touch over 80 minutes and it felt like it was MUCH longer.

Most of the fights seemed pretty nondescript apart from the last two.

Difficult to recommend, maybe only if you liked the seven million other wuxia films that came out in 1993.
