Once Upon a Time in Vietnam was an interesting example of how martial arts can be used to support a film's plot, instead of martial arts becoming the center of the story.

The film takes place in a fantasy world which is neither futuristic, nor set in the past. Instead, it had elements of both, although I'd say, the past gets more attention overall, since the weapons being used were mostly blades. However, in the next scene, Dustin Nguyen can be seen riding around on a motorcycle. It was a novel approach, however, the film could have been left as a period piece and worked just as well. What the fantasy element really did for the film, was allowed it to have modern to futuristic costumes.

Style and concept aside, the story was still good in its own right.
Assigned to protect a small town in Vietnam, Dao arrives to fight against the crime boss; but soon his past catches up with him, threatening to destroy the cherished village.
