Cheung's film concentrates not so much on fighting itself as the question of what fighting is for, and whether it can ever be justified.

Being misunderstood is really common this love-lacked world!

Better than what I expected; apart from the the understandably not-up-to-Hollywood-blockbusters CGI and the, in my opinion, unnecessary love plot, I felt the story was very solid and stayed true to its central theme.
