Title: Chop Sockey
Review: The follow up to "The One Armed Swordsman" tells the tale of the one armed swordsman living a peaceful farmer's life until eight warriors using unique weapons and tactics force all swordsmen in China to fight them to the death. The reason why this group wants to have such complete dominance in the sword fighting world is never fully explained but as the adventure unfurls the message seems to be that violence begets violence. The film fails to meet the cinematic heights of the original since the enemies have little to no background or motivation that makes them compelling. The fighting is well choreographed and will entertain. The extra features are slim but it the film stock is well restored like other Dragon Dynasty releases. This DVD is best for completist who want all of the "One-Armed" style of films.
