Many stars but little screen time and disappointing fights
ckormos111 December 2020
It opens with an extravagant prop. Lo Lieh rides in a palanquin the size of a small yacht. It is carried across the sands by dozens of ladies. Our girl challenges him and scars his cheek. Cut to another challenge she easily wins. Swordsmen gather to discuss the plot. Pearl arrives at another challenge and announces she is after Peerless Swallow.

By the twenty minute mark there were at least four "fights" that lasted a split second each. He fights that lasted longer were just as disappointing. The big name actors were barely used. No fight director is listed in the credits and it shows.

I have the Flash Legs DVD version. The only extra is the movie trailer. It plays wide screen with English subtitles. The English audio track would not play.

Overall I rate this below average for the year and genre and cannot recommend it.
