During the reign of the Tang dynasty in China, a secret organization called "The House of the Flying Daggers" rises and opposes the government. Leo is a police officer who sends officer Jin to investigate a young dancer named Mei, claiming that she has ties to the "Flying Daggers" organization. Leo ends up arresting Mei, only to have Jin break her free in a plot to gain her trust and lead the police to the new leader of the secret organization. But things are far more complicated than they seem.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Big bucks production, silly comic book cartoonish flick, with too much silly 'martial arts' thrown in. submitted by Tassos on February 16, 2022, 6:28pm plus some stupid romance for the little woman, so nobody complains.

HUGE amounts of money were wasted making this STUPID movie.
