Shadow (2018) - beautifully designed and shot, particularly in the first half. Relatively gory for a wuxia: I didn't mind but my wife, who is quite sensitive to such things, found it too much at times.
As with Zhang Yimou's earlier House of Flying Daggers I felt that that it didn't really reach a conclusion as much as ended the story and then drifted to a stop.
Definitely worth seeing though.
