Sinopsis(1)
Based on the smash hit Sony Playstation Game. Heavenly Sword is a dramatic tale of revenge that sees Nariko (Anna Torv), a fiery red-haired heroine, embark on a quest for vengeance against the invading King Bohan (Alfred Molina) and his army. Once considered the failure of a legendary prophecy, Nariko must wield a sword that was ultimately meant for another. This ancient Heavenly Sword, once belonging to a powerful deity, can never be wielded by a mortal without it slowly and inevitably killing them. For Nariko, it is a race against time to avenge her clan before her life is irreparably overtaken by the omnipotent Heavenly Sword. (Gryphon Entertainment)

In essence, Heavenly Sword is not so bad, although the animation was more on the level of video games that do not suit a feature-length movie. In other words, I would have expected much more. In addition, some of the shortcomings and imperfections (facial expressions, gestures, and sometimes even movement) were noticeable in places, and sometimes it looked a bit clunky. Still, I thought it has quite an interesting narrative, even though it could have easily been more and better elaborated. Despite that, it still had some surprising moments. For example, when the brother finally got his hands on the sword and declared he had been dreaming about that moment all his life, but then, what? The main female protagonist and her sister look very nice, although unfortunately, they are not able to listen so well anymore. Yes, even the narration has its weaknesses. The soundtrack was quite good, although almost any music that can be described as "epic" would be suitable for a movie like this, so the anime's creators did not have a hard time with this aspect, in my opinion. 4.5/10.

I really liked this poster and I thought it would be a proper action-packed and sexy 3D thriller. Unfortunately, it didn't turn out that way. There are some moments of thrill, but overall it's not that great, especially the visuals. If it were a video game, maybe five years ago, I might have enjoyed it, but as a film, it's weak.
