Being a huge fan of Chow Yun Fat's work (especially the excellent Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) I couldn't wait to see him in action, and The Assassins certainly does not disappoint! Set in the distant past, The Assassins has a fantastic plot with plenty of tension, romance and, of course, action. The Assassins is easily one of the most stunning action films you'll ever seen. It's simply beautiful! The Blu-ray accentuates this brilliantly - the colours are vivid, the shots are gorgeous and the soundtrack acts as the icing on the cake. It's sheer eye-candy! I'd highly recommend this to all fans of action cinema (especially Asian films). It's a beautiful film with a fantastic action set piece, making it one of the best martial art movies I've seen in quite some time.
