Reviews
“[...] Martial sword (r) ampf epic with stoic warriors and rolling heads - director Kim Ui-Seok tells this lesson about friendship in a very melodramatic and clumsy way, in which a putschist general believed he was dead while hunting an assassin Blood brother meets [...] "
“ Unfortunately, Sword in the Moon does not even come close to its role models from China or Japan. But the film is not bad either, it is made far too lavish and noble for that. One should approach the film without great expectations, because the film still manages to be a war epic that is worth seeing, but nothing more. "
