Just look at THAT!

Rating: 10/10 (14 February 2001)

I have never seen a more visually impressive(non CG) movie like this... I mean the rooftop sequences were quite unusual, in the way the actors half floated, half jogged through the air... but after a bit, it just got better and better.
There was alot of depth in this film, but it wasn't over done to make it arty and stupid. Although the only problem was a lack of humour in most of the first half of the film, however this isn't a major drawback.

The characters were all well cast... however since it's in Chinese I can't tell if they're delivering the lines well.... but from what I gathered the emphisis was fine and it wasn't a problem.
The skill of the characters was unbeliveable, and just the swordplay alone held me in total captivity. Something else that held me in captivity was Ziyi Zhang... such an awesome fighter and she's so beautiful.
This movie (in all seriousnes) is destined to become one of the all time greats.
