"Legend of the Wolf" has a number of issues, in terms of both writing and direction, but the action part compensates largely, in essence emerging as the only reason to watch the film, particularly if you do not enjoy seeing Yen's biceps so often. Go to Full Review

Aug 5, 2013 Donnie Yen's Directorial Debut Is A Martial Arts Drama, Based Just After The Japanese Occupation of China. This Film Is Slow Methodical And Wonderfully Choreographed. The Whole 90's Bookends Wasn't Needed In My Opinion. See more Jun 12, 2010 Working with a shoestring budget, Donnie Yen still makes quite an impression as first time-director with Legend Of The Wolf, but almost exclusively on a technical level. The future Ip Man-impersonator sure knows his way around the action parts of the movie, and manages some creative shots of himself showing off in a wide range of styles. But the plot soon peters out into melodramatic oblivion, including a few ill-advised love scenes, until there's only the thrill of well-choreographed violence left. And that ain't so bad, actually. See more Feb 21, 2010 cool movie, Donnie Yen is the fastes martial artist actor See more May 15, 2009 A decent storyline and great action choreography is ruined by some bad camera work and choppy editing. The movie's only real good part is the action climax. See more May 8, 2009 Yen should be ashamed. Yes he should.
