Michelle Yeoh (Memoirs of a Geisha, Jet Li's Fearless) really gets to show her martial arts ability in this campy Chinese version of Zorro/Batman.
There is plenty of high flying action in a far out adventure as she battles the evil one (Luke Goss) who is using a scientist's invention to rule the world. She banters playfully with the police superintendent, Richie Ren, and it turns out they are lifelong friends.
The main problem with the movie, which one would watch only for Yeoh, is that is is a copy of many of the old batman TV shows, and even borrows from Batman and Robin, with martial arts limited to just knocking people out. She even saves a Panda in the beginning while scaring the kidnappers into submission with just a look. Cheesy.
