MCT:September 25, 2008I love the story, John Lone delivers a very good act, i can't believe that was him as madame Song. He looks so female, the ending was shocking, if you don't know John Lone yet, you'd be surprised that that was him in a dress. I don't like the kissing scenes though

I like the film poignant, but not so keen on same sex love story no matter how real would be the feeliings and the emotions for each other

Um...what? It took me awhile to finally watch this, it was okay. Some nice parts. But Jeremy Irons loves the cock, apparently.
-
MCT:July 23, 2008Spellbinding obsession with the orient and its exoticism parceled out with a great performance by the understated and controlled Jeremy Irons. This will be an eye opener.

This is a classic tale and the film certainly does it justice. Irons does a brilliant job and at the end you'll be wondering just how crazy the man must be.
-
MCT:April 16, 2008Here's a shocker, David Cronenberg directing a movie about she-male Chinese spies. If it's controversial or just plain messed up, it's up his alley.

Cronenberg and the actors tried but they couldn't manage to turn this into something good. At least Worth watching
-
MCT:February 18, 2008David Cronenberg's most bland and disappointing work. Ironic, seeing how the source material is so interesting.
-
MCT:September 12, 2007Spoilers anyone? I now it's a famous play that has been adapted before, but you only find out the secret at the very end.
-
MCT:July 6, 2007Not my favorite Cronenberg movie. I found it very boring, and how could Jeremy Irons not know it was a dude?

Often beautiful, frequently heart-wrenching, a story of love and suffering through a Cultural Revolution. Even Jeremy Irons seems life-like!

"Should" has no meaning in this tragedy that blurs the line between love and sex, man and woman, here and there, and lust and death.
-
MCT:March 13, 2007Love the play. Love the script. I really look forward to watching the movie version but it really disappointed me.

I had to see this movie for my English class. I acted as if i had not read the play already while watching it to try to get the whole feel of the movie, but once you have read the play you already know the big secret. Even knowing this the movie managed to be really good. It isn't like the play in that it is more of a movie and less of a stage play. Jeremy Irons really fits Gallimards role perfectly, showing what a great actor he is in a role that requires a lot of talent. There are scenes that become disturbing once you know what is really going on. I wish i would have seen the movie before reading the play, becuase i can just imagine my jaw dropping at the end. It may be disgusting to watch but i liked the uniqueness and loyalty to the story in the play.

Dead Ringers was awesome. This one looks completely different, but from the same people, so it should be interesting.
