Watch and wonder - Blade of Kings review by Alphaville
Better known as The Twins Effect 2, this is a period Chinese extravaganza from 2004 starring the Twins (Charlene Choi and Gillian Chung). Nothing could match the first Twins Effect, but this is still an epic mind-boggling romp. It’s exotic, it’s colourful, it’s got great sets, scenery and wirework action. The Twins have great screen presence and in this one they get to rule the roost in a society in which the men are slaves. Sit back and let all the outlandish bravado wash over you.
