Video: 69

Flying Swords of Dragon Gate features exceptional 1080p/MVC MPEG-4 encode on Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D, with immersive depth, crystal-clear details, and vibrant, natural colors. The 3D presentation captivates with layered visuals and dynamic fight sequences, although some exaggerated effects may feel artificial at times.

Audio: 69

Flying Swords of Dragon Gate features a fantastically immersive lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix with brilliant sound design and exceptional surround activity. Despite some poorly synched dialogue, the dynamic range is wide, and the low-end is powerful, providing an exhilarating experience. However, inconsistent subtitles can be distracting.

Extra: 66

Extras offer insightful behind-the-scenes looks and substantial cast/crew interviews but are marred by subpar audio in some segments. Expect comprehensive footage on wire-work, desert location challenges, and scene preparations, enhancing appreciation for 'Flying Swords of Dragon Gate's' intricate production.

Movie: 66

"Flying Swords of Dragon Gate," directed by Tsui Hark, masterfully revitalizes wuxia through cutting-edge 3D technology and engaging, high-flying fight choreography. Despite its convoluted plot and underutilization of Jet Li, it remains a visually stunning piece of popcorn escapism, balancing epic set pieces with modern cinematic techniques.
