The two Korean actioners in this box set are a cut above. The Warrior stars Zhang Ziyi as a 14th-century Ming princess who winds up in a kind of Feudal Alamo. The action is more brutal than you might expect, but Ziyi doesn't do any fighting; that's left to Yu Rong-kwong (who's the spitting image of Benicio Del Toro).
Bichunmoo is more dynamic, with wall-to-wall Chinese style action and a plot about a swordsman's undying love for his childhood sweetheart. Touching, if you ignore the decapitations.
DVD Extras:
Twenty minutes of deleted scenes for The Warrior, plus Making Ofs, outtakes and interviews for both pictures - as well as breathless commentaries from Asian cinema experts Bey Logan and Mike Leeder.
