When the swordmaker who raised him as a son─and apprenticed him─falls prey to a pack of murderous thieves, foolhardy Ding On (Zhao Wenzhuo) rushes into a confrontation with the killers... and loses an arm as a result. Humiliated, he drives himself into perfecting a fighting style where his loss becomes an asset instead of a handicap... and sets out to retrieve a bloody retribution. Tsui Hark's kinetic re-imagining of "One-Armed Swordsman" also stars Sonny Su, Valerie Chow, Collin Chou. 106 min. In Cantonese with English subtitles/Dubbed in English.
