synopsis

Under the camera of Hark Tsui, the Chinese famous legend "Green Snake" has been put under the limelight. Without changing the story itself, Tsui's creativeness makes the movie become a counter-traditional production and brings the audience a refreshing respective for the movie. Maggie Cheung (As Siu Ching, Green Snake) and Joey Wang (As Sou-Ching, White Snake) do a magnificent job in playing the righteous goblins. Added with creative special effects, the movie is really a legend which is worth watching.
