Directed by Si Shubin and with production credits to James Nan (Five Element Killer, The Dark Soul, Vixen) and Bey Logan (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny), LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW is set against the backdrop of the 16th Century Ming Dynasty.
“LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW plays like a greatest hits record. There’s lots of amazing stuff here – the fight sequences are top notch, the plot is decent and Rong, who equal parts Zhang Ziyi […are] an absolute joy to watch,” wrote Ultimate Action Movies.
Written by Hu Rong, LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW follows the fierce lady detective shadow herself, Sima Feiyan (Shang Rong), who travels alongside her young apprentice, Ye Zi (Zhang Pei-yue) through the bad lands of Ancient China, which is swarmed with thieves, murders, thugs and ultimate corruption. Engrossed with mystery and intense action sequences, Sima Feiyan must use all her wit, kung fu and natural detective shadows to save and protect the town and its people. But as she delves deeper into the mystery, she soon discovers there is much more at stake than just another renegade killer. Stitched together with high-quality mystery, suspense and an intriguing storyline set against the historical and cultural backgrounds of ancient China, Sima Feiyan never misses a clue, proving herself a match for literature’s other great detectives.
“Shang Rong brings a quiet dignity to ‘Sima’, so you never know what she is thinking, but she is usually two steps ahead of her opponents. She thinks before speaking and is an immediately appealing character that I would like to see in future movies, as this is clearly a potential franchise,” wrote The Action Elite.
