The only thing cool about this movie is its poster. lol.
Despite everything, I liked its basic story. Could've been catchy if written well. The story focuses on a gem buried in an ancient city that is known to have magical powers so will its holder. As the plotline states, our main lead embarks on a journey to find the hidden gem with his sister when they are threatened by the general. They're to find and deliver the gem to the general in exchange for their father under the pretense that the gem is to cure their town of plague. Well, they run into many different hurdles as they go.
Characters are just okay. It's a very short movie so there isn't much about the characters but I liked Wu Nian best. She has a past and she's different. She intrigued me the moment her character entered the movie and the mystery surrounding her unfolded really nicely but I wish there had been more to her. The rest of the characters are just there to fill the required roles. Wu Nian and Tian Yu are the only important ones here. And Master, Tian Yu's dog. He's badass XD
Pros: I loved the cinematography. Nicely done though sometimes it looked so fake, but then, it's ok.
Cons: There are too many things that didn't even make sense. The fight scenes for example and the sudden changes in the scenery. I mean, one moment they are traveling through mountains the next they are in a desert and within a blink of an eye, they're in a dense forest with heavy mist and a huge lake. Yeah, it didn't make sense.
So, if you're bored out of your mind and want to watch something adventurous with good cinematography and which doesn't make you think much then this movie is for you. But if you want something intense, which makes you ponder and question, then don't!
