Author: Guest Was a movie I had to drag my girlfriend to, and we both ended up loving it. Beautiful scenery and martial arts, as well as an intrictate plot.

Author: Guest I love Zhang Yimou's films and found this one to be no exeception. The use of color and imagery is amazing. I'm not sure how many Americans realize that the old Technicolor movie cameras found their way to China allowing some its greatest directors to make use of the best and most stable color movie process around. I'm sure it was an honor for Jet Li, Tony Leueng and Maggie Cheung to make a movie with him and such a wonderful movie too. The story is told beautifully and movingly.

Author: Guest ok i love action films except this one... the previews fooled me really badly, i thought jet li would somehow take down all the arrows like how the previews showed it...but no, he dies. that is a tragedy. if ur marketing a film and setting an expectation, make sure u meet it otherwise people get angry, like me.

Author: Guest This is the movie. It has substance, romance, music, everything.
Tells many stories in one. The dedication of Zhao to calligraphy.
Alternative personalities and relations in different colors. Touching story of love and war. I have seen it by now like 10 times and will see it again. Itzhak Perlmans violin, vibrates with my heart. A true story told in a very mythical way. So why I still do not give 5 stars to this movie like I would to Kurosawa movies like Seven Samurai? Cause it has a connotation to promote power warship and dictatorship. Other than that this is a monumental art work. I will see it ten more times and still will want to see again. I even memorized some chinese lines.
