One-Armed Swordsman
ActionAdventureDrama116 min
After losing an arm, a noble swordsman returns to his former teacher when a gang of rival fighters closes in. The one-armed hero (Jimmy Wang Yu) moves through a Han dynasty world of clan loyalty, revenge, and martial codes, where formal challenges can turn into sudden, bloody duels. As danger gathers around the school he left behind, the story keeps its focus on duty, injury, and technique, with sword fights staged as a test of endurance as much as skill.
