Enraged by tales of a young warrior who legend states will rise to end her diabolical reign over Huadu, the wicked Empress (Qu Ying) and her eunuch high priest (Daniel Wu) dispatch skilled assassin Blue Bird (Gillian Chung) to prevent the prophecy from coming to pass. Later, Blue Bird clashes swords with irritable slave trader 13th Young Master (Charlene Choi), but the two rivals decide to join forces after realizing they have a common goal. When Blue Bird and 13th Young Master cross paths with Blockhead (Wilson Chen) and Charcoal Head (Jaycee Chan, son of Jackie), they realize that one of the boys is the one prophesized to wield the mythical sword Excalibur, and defeat the evil Empress. Upon realizing that Charcoal Head is the legendary warrior in the flesh, Blue Bird and 13th Young Warrior join him on his treacherous quest to become the rightful ruler of Huadu. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Good action-comedy with special effects and I like the fight scene of Jackie Chan vs Donnie Yen.

    Good action-comedy with special effects and I like the fight scene of Jackie Chan vs Donnie Yen. But I got to say that The Twins Effect was better.

    If you liked Twins Effect 1 & expect a sequel, skip this movie. It may as well be a whole other film. Besides that, it wasn't very good on its own either.

    Ehh, its not really a sequel at all. It stars many of the same actors in a different role and a different setting from the first film. Interesting story of a woman spurned creating a Chinese Amazon society, but it is not a must-see film.

    Hilarious until the end. Keeps me laughing, it's just so silly. Those twins need a serious spanking. TSK!
