November 18, 2009The great story about how a son loved his mother so much, and will doing anything for her happiness. It's also shown how brutal a king can be, including trying to kill his both wives. Well, the power of an authority could blinded the eyes of a man or in this movie, three man. Th...( read more)

October 4, 2009The wuxia genre continues to give birth to films, and this is the lowest spot the genre has fallen. The extraordinary imagery as colorful as a rainbow, the astonishing costume design and the artistic editing typical of Yimou Zhang are still present, but the substance and the orig...( read more)

October 2, 2009The film is visually stunning. The set looks amazing and all the dresses, armours and props look spectacular. Zhang Yimou is a Visual Genius, so it's no surprise that this film is a good looking one. The cast all perform well except for Jay Chou. I think he should stick with sing...( read more)

September 6, 2009Zhang Yimou is going downhill, and clearly needs Christopher Doyle on cinematography. The rainbow palette makes for an elaborate setpiece, but lacks the elegance of the earlier collaborations with Doyle. The plot makes even less sense than their last picture, the martial arts are...( read more)

September 4, 2009Absolutely heartbreaking movie, full of drama, roaring betrayal and backstabbing, secrecy and beautiful cinematography and color and action. I wish I could've seen it in theatres; the viewing experience isn't fully appreciated on a small TV screen.
-
August 15, 2009Opulent and inspired, Yimou Zhang continues to wow me with color and composition. Slow at the start, but shot in such a compelling way it doesn't get boring. The ending is classic Chinese tragedy.

July 25, 2009this movie is beautiful. The palace, the scenes, the wardrobe, keren. Jadi pengen ke forbidden city.
-
July 23, 2009Tedious, plot-less drivel trying to cash in on the success of Hero and House Of Flying Daggers. It's an "eastern", but made specifically for western audiences - hence it's failures. It's full of melodrama, the palace looks like it's made of sweet-wrappers and play-doh, everyone o...( read more)

June 26, 2009Wow, what a visually amazing work of cinematography. And talk about your proverbial cast of thousands. The climactic battle scene is just beyond epic. I don't think I've ever seen war portrayed quite this way. A very fluid mass of humanity pours across the screen, like two li...( read more)

May 24, 2009It is so visually stunning that it can be compared to Chushingura (1962). The acting and the long slow plot, however, still have much room for growth. Gong Li, however, is still as amazing as ever. The completely lavishing and wastefulness for the emperor and empress can be seen ...( read more)

April 21, 2009This movie is absolutely gorgeous. Even if I didn't have any kind of translation, I could still watch this movie. The set and costume designs are amazing.
