"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny" is on Netflix

I watched the 2016 sequel to the Oscar winning film, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee. "Sword of Destiny" has a lot going for it in the martial art sequences, but not a whole lot with character. An evil warlord wants the "green destiny sword" to rule the world. He sends his henchmen to kill for it, but Yu Shu Lien (Michelle Yeoh) will return to protect the sword after 18 years. I liked it because Yeoh returned, but the magic is gone even though the production used some of the original music soundtrack. There is too many bodies flying in the air & fighting for no reason. Warriors used to only fight when they had to defend themselves. (Check it our over at Netflix if you want).
