decent period drama

'Chivalrous Legend' is a pretty good period piece set in Taiwan, which follows the young years of TenDin (Jimmy Lin) as he struggles to survive a Japanese invasion.

After a while it turns into a familiar 'Robin Hood' type yarn, but it's all fairly enjoyable.

I picked up 'Chivalrous Legend' mainly to see Vivian Hsu, and while she doesn't get any screen time till towards the end, it's worth the wait.

Worth a watch.
