Hero (2002)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Yimou Zhang
Starring: Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Tony Chiu-Wai Leung, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Ziyi Zhang, Maggie Cheung, Zhang Ziyi
Jet Li didn't kill the three assasins, but the three assasins lost to him in staged battles and gave him their weapons willingly. It turns out that Jet Li used these weapons to get close to the emperor and he is the real assasin. Jet Li learns from Broken Sword (Tony Leung) the valuable lesson that the emperor isn't such a bad guy after all as he wants to unite China and bring about peace. Jet Li does not kill the emperor and walks away, and is killed by millions of arrows, leaving a Jet Li shaped hole in the arrows. Jet Li is given an honorable funeral. Broken Sword and Flying Snow (Maggie Cheung) kill each other.

Question: In the final fight between Flying Snow and Broken Sword, how did they get their weapons back? Weren't their swords still in the palace?

Answer: Those were two different swords they had at the end. You can tell because when Broken Sword's weapon hits the sand when he drops it, you can clearly see the tapered point, not a broken edge.
