Xterminator August 28, 2004 Share Xterminator Member August 28, 2004 I just got back from the theatre. It was an interesting movie. The plot is really indepth and you have to watch the whole thing to understand, you can't just pickup bit by bit. But yeah the movie surprised me. I was looking forward to it but it didn't impress me as much as i thought it would. my rating (if i'm allowed to rate) 83/100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeK August 30, 2004 Share TeK Member August 30, 2004 Honestly, I found this movie AMAZING(I enjoyed Crouching tiger but this I just enjoyed). Saw it yesterday with a couple of friends. The scene when flying snow and moon fight in the leaves is by far one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen with the leavs falling. The settings and cinematography were amazing and breath taking. Glad the movie was subtitled instead of dubbed. Loved the color of the outfits changing as each part of the story was told.

Zeabos August 30, 2004 Share Zeabos Member August 30, 2004 *clap clap* A VERY well done movie. I love the swath of destruction Broken Sword and Snow cut on their way to the palace. The move was just visually AMAZING. Every scene seemed to be color coordinated and all the details worked out. But the SOUND is what really impressed me. It was so hard and vibrant. you heard EVERYTHING. My only problem. Every scene seemed to drag about 1 minute longer than it should have. The movie felt like 2 and a half hours. When it was just a short one and a half! 90/100 for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis September 10, 2004 Share Dennis Member September 10, 2004 yes "presented" the only thing he had to do with the movie was bringing it into the US. the movie is already out in asia on DVD. alot of people have thought this but he only brought it to the US so we could see it on the big screen.

Brillow_Head September 11, 2004 Share Brillow_Head Member September 11, 2004 I too got a "Crouching-Tiger" aura when watching this movie. I dont' buy into the supernatural approach to the martial arts too often but it can pass on this movie because the action was coreogrphed(sp) in the mind durring the telling of a story to an emperor. And I also liked the emphasis on truth as the entire movie was devoted to finding the hidden truth in each story and motive...including the emperor's. This was definetly not an action movie, it was more a balad (sp) and as such I enjoyed in greatly. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
