[B][COLOnoreferalspurple]Does somebody thinks that Sevven Sword is great?
I think that it's kind of boring and I don't understand why they have to kill people so much.

lol oh! i saw seven swords just today in stores, i wanted to get it because it looked really cool the cover was nice ^-^ 
yea...the cove looks good, but the movie is kind of boring.
I didn't like Seven Swords that much. It was pretty complicated and boring.
I suggest you all to watch the House of Flying Daggers instead.

saw this moviebout 3 weeks ago...felt that this movie was not up 2 expectation as what it was expected to..quite boring show without much action but only talking and even the fighting part was quite confusing...really dissapointed with the movie..
This movie looks pretty cool.
Does anyone know if the 4 hour long version will be released on DVD with english subtitiles? if so when will it be released?
Im kinda excited about this movie but have mixed feelings after learning that leon lai is one of the main actors. With such a large epic movie, how can they choose a crappy actor like leon lai? dont understand.....

SEVEN SWORDS
press release and casting announcement
Mandarin Films (posted September 3rd, 2004)
http://www.hkentreview.com/2004/features/seven/seven.gif
TSUI HARK ANNOUNCES SEVEN SWORDS
Internationally acclaimed director, Tsui Hark, announced his new martial arts wuxia epic project, SEVEN SWORDS, today in Beijing. Featuring a star-studded cast, SEVEN SWORDS will be shot in various locations in Xinjiang, China.
Produced, directed, and written by Tsui Hark, SEVEN SWORDS is an action-packed wuxia epic about love, betrayal, and heroism. Starring Asia hottest stars, including award winning Hong Kong actor and singer Leon Lai (Three, Infernal Affairs 3), versatile actress Charlie Young (New Police Story, Fallen Angels), international action star Donnie Yen (Blade 3, Hero), award winning China actors Sun Hong-Lei (Zhou Yu's Train) and Lu Yi, and actress Kim So Yeon from Korea. With state of the art costume and set designs by Eddie Wong (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), and action direction by acclaimed martial arts choreographer, Lau Kar-Leung (Drunken Master 2).
Adapted from renowned writer Liang Yu-Shen timeless classic, SEVEN SWORDS tells the story of seven unlikely heroes gathered together to save a village from the massacre of a general that is seeking a fortune through killing. In the early 1600, the long ruling Ming Dynasty has been overthrown, and the Manchurian invaders from the north have taken over the sovereignty, beginning what is known as the Ching Dynasty, and a highly oppressive reign thus begins. In order to prevent rebels developing revolutionary plots, the newly set-up government immediately imposes a ruthless emergency martial law, ordering all martial art practitioners to turn in their weapons to district officials. Those who fail to do so will be considered committing a serious crime and would result to immediate execution. But soon enough, people would discover that even if they were to obey the law and turn in their weapon, their fate is equally in dire. Wind Fire, a surrendered military official from the previous dynasty, sees this as an opportunity to make a fortune for himself by helping to execute the new law. After endless massacres, Wind Fire next goal is to attack the final frontier, the village of Bowei Fortress.
Fu Qingzhu, a retired executioner from the previous dynasty feels the need to put a stop to this brutality and sets out to save Bowei Fortress. He brings Wu Yuanyin and Han Zhiban from the village with him to Mount Heaven to seek help from Master Shadow-Glow, a hermit who is a master of swords and leads a group of disciples of great swordsmanship. Master Shadow-Glow agrees to help, and orders four of his best disciples to go. Together with Chu Zhaonan, Yang Yunchong, Mulong, and Xin Longzi, SEVEN SWORDS is formed. Fu Qingzhu takes the lead and they set out to save the people of Bowei Fortress. As they take the entire village leading them to the road of a safer place, they begin to encounter mysterious confusion. Food and water is poisoned, and trails of escape are marked with signs leading the enemy to them. They soon realize that there is an undercover spy amongst them, and SEVEN SWORDS must identify him/her before Wind Fire army gets to them
Principle photography for SEVEN SWORDS begins September 1, 2004, and the entire film will be shot in Urumuqi, Tien Shan, Shanshan, and various locations in Xinjiang, China. The film is set for release in the summer of 2005.
SEVEN SWORDS is produced and directed by Tsui Hark, from the script co-written by Tsui Hark, Cheung Chi-Sing, and Chun Tien-Nan. Executive Producers are Ma Zhong-Jun, Raymond Wong, and Lee Joo-Ick.

I not seen this movie yet, it came out just as i was about to leave HK. But it sounds pretty good, cant wait to see it.
I just watched the movie right now...yea I agree that most of the movie didn't seem to have flow to it...it all seemed like pieces of the movie...but what the heck...the action scenes were awesome...however the camera work was a bit weak and the scenes seemed to jump around too much...but I liked the fighting in it...haha...it was so cool watching a sword fight in the modern era...none of that crouching tiger stuff where it's all artistic and stuff...I know a lot of people are disappointed in the movie and stuff...but I seriously hope they make a trilogy or multiple sequels to it...I thought it was pretty decent...
...I didn't even know there was a 4 hr version? Is it out on DVD? I'm all over that...=P
...I didn't even know there was a 4 hr version? Is it out on DVD? I'm all over that...=P
Wah..I didn't know about this movie until now. I looks like it's gonna be good. So is there going to be more episodes of this movie or just the one?
Nice movie. best from HK since a long time ago
i havent get to see twin effect..anyone have any idea i can get the link?
i havent get to see twin effect..anyone have any idea i can get the link?
This was a OK movie. A good movie for Leon Lai. this movie is watchable. But i dont recommend you re-watching it.
Looks like its gonna be an interesting film, but then again the last two films I've seen with Leon in it, haven't even ocme close to being good...so I hope this isn't gonna be another let down
I watched this movie also and found it to be a bit boring as well, the fight scenes were good, but the story was lacking.
wanted to watch at first.. but heard bad comment bout it.. soo i think i might not be a nice movie...
the DVD is out...u all shld check it out..at least for ONCE
not a movie for everyone but still worth watching.....
not a movie for everyone but still worth watching.....

Finally got a chance to watched this movie. I tried not to let the hype get to me, but alas, I think I expected more, and ended up a tad disappointed. There were some nice scenes in the movie, especially the one when the 7 swords were fighting in the village hall (?). However, there is a bit too much gore for my taste (I thought it was going to get as bad as Musa, but thankfully it didn't). Overall, it's an okay movie. I thought Leon and Charlie played their roles well enough, just that the roles themselves didn't have enough for the stars to shine. Oh, and I find that Donnie Yen's char outshines the other chars, but that's okay, since Donnie is pretty cool himself.
Lot of fighting but there was like not really a point in the story ^^ . There is another movie called The Myth by Jackie Chan, hope it doesn't suk as much 
.
.
Wow my favorite star Leon is in this movie..wow the swords look pretty good in the posters can't wait to see this movie. Hope it will be a great story line and interesting to see! Charlie is getting back out in the movies alot.
Okay I just finished the movie. I didn't like it. The plot was thin and much of it didn't make any sense. The fight scenes would have been cool, if there were more colors. Most the movie just looks brown and dark. THey had too many different stories going on. I would not recommend this movie to anyone.
Most of my friends said this movie is really good and i think so too .. Tsui Hark's films most of them are pretty good .. i have to wait until i watch the movie to give some more comments
This movie is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Donnie Yen who is normally uber cool doesnt fight much, all he does is feel up a hot korean chick.
And Leon Lai is such a bad actor.
And Leon Lai is such a bad actor.
lol i was surprised to see duncan in this movie....the korean girl is pretty hot too.....anyways....is the tv series of seven swords out or is it still being film...can any1 tell me?...because the movie was cool and i want to watch the tv series.
hasnt seen a leon lai movie for quite awhile. the plot was abit confusing (to me) but overall it's still a pretty good movie

well said. I was really dissappointed in the movie. I guess I shouldn't have expected too much.
the movie is alright but its far too long, some scenes wasnt neccessary and boring. But i do hope they decide to make a sequal!
Before i going to c this movie, i already know it is going to be boring... really cant expect much of tsui hark movie... i really don't like his director style... the story is not bad, just i don't know why i feel bored...
this movie i am really confused about. i dunt really noe what exactly was happening. I dunt even haf a clue. Confussing movei. Could anyone explain the scences. thankyou
Sorry guys, but the only thing good about this movie was the sword play and the Korean woman. Every time a scene created any minute stir of anticipation, it would flashforward or switch storylines, making it not hard to follow but gut wrenchingly annoying to watch. No flow and no emotional attachment to any of the characters except to the Korean
