action choreography by yuen siblings corey and cheung-yan; it has all the trademarks of the family s style with inventive and excellant trainig sequences beutifully choreographed fight scenes and the use of exotic weapons with great names like the "ring of death." the introduction to the story sets the tone well; it is forboding from the start and only gets more and more dark as jo-hsueh slashes her way through attackers. she is completely without remorse and is singularly focused on the destruction of her fathers killer. she has no time for friends or mercy . in this regard shih szu does an excellent job. her fighting is quite good as well, with strong legwork and flexibility.
