Deserves the Oscar, but not the 9th Position

Rating: Null/10 (26 February 2001)

This is a very good movie, with amazing depth and solid script. It is the best movie of those nominated to the Oscar indeed. But I don't think it should be that high on the TOP 250. Touching and exciting, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" mixes art and adventure in a very successful way, being perfect for almost every audience. The characters, the story, the music, the action sequences and the locations are beautiful, sending you into a magical world that completely hooks you up. After the movie ends, it might take a while to let that world go. I believe most people already know what the movie is about, and I just wanted to say I liked this movie very much, but I certainly think there are most powerful ones left behind on the TOP 250. Perhaps this will be corrected when the hype passes, like what happened to American Beauty ( also amazing ). Anyway, definitely worth watching... and watching over.
