True Legend is an epic action movie from 2010 directed by Yuen Woo-ping. The movie is centered around the story of Su Can, played by Wenzhuo Zhao, a renowned martial arts master who has retired from his role as a general in the military. Su Can is married to Yuan Ying, played by Xun Zhou, and the couple have a young son named Feng. The movie begins with Su Can being challenged to a fight by Yuan Lie, his brother who had turned to evil ways after being denied a promotion within the military. Su Can accepts the challenge but is ultimately defeated by Yuan Lie, who then takes over Su Can's mansion and tries to kill him and his wife.

Su Can manages to escape with his son, but Yuan Ying is gravely injured in the fight. Su Can takes his wife to an old friend and renowned doctor, who tells him that she needs a special kind of medicine to survive. Desperate to save his wife, Su Can begs his old friend, known as the God of Wushu, to teach him a powerful form of martial arts known as the Drunken Fist so that he can compete in a tournament and win the needed funds to buy the medicine.

Throughout the movie, Su Can undergoes intense training and develops a mastery of the Drunken Fist. However, his journey is complicated by a pair of deadly assassins sent to kill him, as well as the challenges of taking care of his young son and fighting his own inner demons.

As the tournament draws near, Su Can faces off against a series of increasingly difficult opponents, all of whom are also seeking the prize money for their own reasons. Along the way, Su Can learns valuable lessons about friendship, loyalty, and perseverance.

One of the notable aspects of the movie is its impressive fight scenes, which are choreographed by the legendary martial arts master Yuen Woo-ping. The fight scenes range from small-scale battles to larger-scale spectacles, all of which are executed with precision and flair.

The performances by the actors are also noteworthy, particularly Wenzhuo Zhao as Su Can, who manages to convey both physical prowess and emotional depth. Xun Zhou also delivers a strong performance as Yuan Ying, a woman who is both strong and vulnerable.

Overall, True Legend is a thrilling martial arts movie that delivers on both action and heart. It tells a compelling story of a man who must overcome incredible challenges to save his loved ones, all while displaying impressive feats of martial arts mastery.
