莽屠夫愛上了冷艷的青樓花魁，示愛不遂中途出家做大俠，原來手上菜刀是絕世神刀，寶刀出鞘，三世宿命一次了斷，引起的瘋狂效應。廣告片出身的新星導烏爾善，憑獨特的創意和智慧脫穎而出，與安藤政信、張雨綺、遊本昌、劉樺中日明星大交流，有荷里活巨頭霍士與名監製加持，《刀見笑》再創中國類型電影，掀起黑色荒誕武俠喜劇潮，在多倫多影節大放異彩，也為「亞洲星引力」計劃打響炮。
Presented by BOURNE IDENTITY director Doug Liman, THE BUTCHER, THE CHEF AND THE SWORDSMAN is the latest Chinese martial arts epic to head to the west. Told as a layered series of stories-within-stories, the film concerns a mythical blade and its effect on a motley menagerie of characters. However, this is more KUNG FU HUSTLE than CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON! Director Wuershan pulls out all the stops for this irreverent kung-fu comedy, mixing film stocks, movie genres and narrative gimmicks for an over-the-top, tasty and altogether unexpected bit of midnight movie madness.
