“Enjoying the series very much with family. As usual, the settings, behaviors of characters, speech and other attributes are perfect.

And again, we dream of going to some remote Dragon Inn or other to wolf down a horrifying dish, refuse to pay and start a brawl that would be fun for everyone! [Little added humor there.] Thank you!”


Glad you like it. The adaptation isn’t up to cable standards, but the Chinese MO appears to be to go for production values over script refinement. At the same time, their budgets are somewhat more constrained* than the budget-busting $9m an episode production of Rome. And then there’s the subtitle barrier. Still, the production values aren’t bad. They’re certainly comparable or superior to the period martial arts movies of the 80’s.

* The entire 95 episode run cost $30m.
