Review of Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame (2010) by Sheron J — 07 Oct 2011
The always great andy lau is detective dee. empress wu (carina lau) has him released from prison having been sentenced previously for treason. he has to solve the mystery of the phantom flame before her coronation.
there is lots of intrigue in the seat of power where anyone can be the culprit as there is so much at stake for the players. this movie is pretty and nicely paced with plot twists and characters that stay interesting as they hold their cards close to their chests.
history, fantasy, mystery, martial arts and spectacle blend well in this tale. good stuff.
