The Myth and a tale of levitating tombs

Finally watched Jackie's new movie on the legendary tomb of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. Interesting movie but there were several bloopers that I am sure did not go unnoticed by the viewers.

In one part if I recall correctly, the sword that belonged to General Meng Yi was exchanged with the Prince of Dasar after their duel over Princess Ok-Soo, or Concubine Li of the Qin. But the odd part is, in the scene where he tries to save General Xu Gui from the rebel ambush, he is actually using his OWN sword and not the sword of the Dasar Prince. Strange isn't it.. *scratches my head*

Nonetheless, there are tales on levitation and incarnation weaved into the storyline and it actually becomes slightly believable at times. The movie was average at best but add in the fight scenes and it becomes worthwhile to watch.. on a weekday though. :p
