Review of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (2016) by James Marsh for Screen International — 09 Feb 2016
Clocking in at just 96 minutes, Sword of Destiny feels heavily truncated, lacking in narrative substance. Scant characterisation and timid action choreography don’t help matters, while an over-reliance on simple sets and CGI landscapes mean Grant Major’s (The Lord of the Rings) production design lacks the resonance of the previous film.
