Synopsis

Prepare for an epic battle of honor and loyalty when Korea’s Koryo warriors band together for the ultimate battle against the Yuan to save their dynasty.

The year is 1375. China lies in chaos as the battle between the Yuan and Ming dynasties ends with the Ming’s bloody victory. The Korean Koryo dynasty, in an attempt to encourage peace with the new Chinese government, sends a delegation of soldiers to the new leader.

However, the delegation is received with hostility, accused as spies and exiled to a remote desert. Abandoned and humiliated, the soldiers are forced to choose their loyalties when they encounter the Yuan cavalry who have kidnapped Ming’s princess, Pu Yong (Golden Globe nominee Zhang Ziyi, Memoirs of a Geisha) – and only the Koryo can save her. —SPHE

There were parts I loved and it had some extremely powerful moments. Some parts of the score really hurt the film, but that is forgivable. I was very impressed with Sung-kee Ahn, the Korean answer to Fred Ward.
