***
Detective Dee is a massive chopsocky epic/whodunit.
International action star Andy Lau stars as the titular detective, assigned by a controversial Empress to investigate a series of spontaneous combustions.
Exquisitely choreographed fight scenes pile up furiously, with the endless spectacle offering a nice distraction from the convoluted plot.
Really this movie is about the action and visuals.
