This upcoming kungfu movie prequel (also called 狄仁杰之神都龙王) will released where I live on September 27th. The first movie, Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame, had featured some femslash subtext scenes but given the different casting this time around (with the exception of Wu Zetian, who is still played by Carina Lau) I'm not sure how much femslash it will have. Hopefully with the same director (Tsui Hark) it will retain some of the elements that made the first movie entertaining--a bit of intrigue, decent wire-work, and just enough story to make you want a little more. If there is any femslash, I'll be sure to post it here on DW. :]

Update 26/09/2013: Found the trailer with English subs.

Update 10/10/2013: No femslash but quite entertaining. B+/A-. :D
