Only the power of a ring can transcend time and save a life .
violence | There are several battle scenes depicted in the film featuring sword and gun-fighting, with some slashing and shooting visible. Some of the stronger scenes include one in which a man is slashed briefly in the throat before another man is surrounded and stabbed by guards with spears; a scene featuring a close shot of a woman being stabbed in the stomach; a scene of a man wrestling another man in a stream before stabbing the latter repeatedly; etc. The impact of the violent acts is visible in most of the above-mentioned scenes, but only briefly and is accompanied by the sight of blood in some instances. |
profanity | The film also contains the use of coarse language such as the swear word 'f**k' which is uttered by some of the characters mostly out of frustration. |
