During the 16th century, Japanese pirates proliferate along the Chinese coastline. In 1557, the pirates take over Cengang in Zhejiang. After months of futile advances, Commander Yu (Sammo Hung) finally defeats them under the leadership of newly promoted General Qi (Vincent Zhao). The Pirates, however, manage to escape.

Reviews (1)
A brisk historical blockbuster from China with a great Vincent Zhao and a funny looking Sammo Hung (fortunately he was just a glimpse here, as he looked terrible). There's quite a lot of action here and thankfully it is R-rated, although it's not overly brutal, occasionally a head or arm go flying. Unfortunately I found the action too monotonous and uninspired towards the end. The story is very weak, but I wasn't bored. 65% ()
