7cb1d79195 A tale of revenge, honor and greed follows a group of misfits that gets involved with a kitchen cleaver made from the top five swords of the martial arts world in this wild and brash action comedy. THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN follows the journey of a mystical bladeit passes through the hands of three ambitious men. As the interwoven story unfolds, they find that the blade possesses the power to dramatically change the fate of each of its owners. The Butcher is a simple man in love with a beautiful courtesan, but is rebuffed each time he approaches her. The Chef is a handsome loner obsessed with seeking vengeance for the slaughter of his family. The Swordsman, the son of a legendary warrior, is consumed by the desire to eclipse his father in both power and fame. Their stories comes full circleeach man takes possession of the mystical blade and discovers its double edge–- the great power it bestows is matched by even greater danger. Fun film. Weird, jumps around, but I thought it was a worthy use of 5 or 6 dollars it cost.<br/><br/>I have a huge collection of various martial arts films and watch that stuff all the time. I like the butcher, he always gets run over by some dude on a horse. The chef was pretty involving, preparing the perfect dish to serve to the master. The swordsman, well I guess he got what he deserved for being so bold. The spoiler is he goes up against some other swordsmen, but the old sword maker cheated him when he built the ultimate sword, and he dies.<br/><br/>I thought it was good for a few laughs, but it is hard to follow. Use your imagination to fill in the confusing parts and all is well. It won&#39;t let me post this anywhere sans mobile phone number so I&#39;m posting it here…<br/><br/>I love the music from this movie. The song that was sung in the brothel was called &#39;zai zai&#39;. It&#39;s an ensemble song and the lead singer from the song is Yan Jixuan. Contributing are I believe Pan Shuai, Liu Aotian, Liu Shengtian and Feng Xu. Copyright belonging to Beijing Jingwen Record Co. The ending credits song is called &#39;eaten yet&#39; and is sung by Wang Xiadou. Both through CMCB. Both arranged by Wang Yuanzhao.<br/><br/>Sorry for posting this here in the review section, but it is a review of the music. For anyone who loved the musicmuchI did and is seeking the ost, I hope this helps! When all the pieces finally come together at the end, the effect is less impressive than it is reminiscent of "Wayne's World": multiple endings, no real impact or weight to either.
