Known as Flaming Swords, this film is a great example of a classic Kung Fu movie. Shaw Brother's former movie star, David Chiang, plays the role of a son sent out by his father to execute a criminal. While the story finally begins to unfold, major conflict is taken to his own family, and those closest to them help wage battle.
The fighting sequences are unbelievable (well thought up and choreographed). The dubbing comes out to be a bit cheesy at times, but acceptable with a good plot that can be hard to follow unless you listen carefully.
This film is remembered to be David Chiang's last old school Kung Fu movie. The story is a wonderful mystery with a big surprise ending that ends with a brutal but great execution.
I give the film a 9/10 for its time, and a high recommendation to those who love old school Kung Fu films.
