The direction focuses on the dynamics of a group portrait, where each combat scene serves to reveal character. The atmosphere is steeped in a spirit of rebellion and rough-hewn poetry.
It suits admirers of epic sagas about brotherhood and duty. The viewer will sense the legend's scale, conveyed through the heroes' personal dramas. — MovieFinder Editorial
