This film has some cheesy fights, cheesy effects, cheesy characters and everything that a fan of cheese cinema wants to see in a film! The story is about a man whose wife has been killed by the local emperor and he is sentenced to death. Therefore, in order to flee he kindaps the emperor's son and flees with him. On the way, the emperor's son is killed accidentally, and the man who is chased by the emperor's soldiers gives his nephew a medal that had belonged to the emperor's son before he was killed. Later on, the bad guys appear and everything becomes so cheesy that you won't stop laughing! On the top of that, there are many wine bottles flying around! Bottom line : I recommend that you watch this cheesy film if you are in favour of this genre! 7/10
