Overrated

Rating: 5/10 (20 August 2002)

Every year there is one movie hail as a masterpiece but is anything but. I thought Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was the one that took the honor in 2000.
Don't get me wrong, its got its good sides. It was beautifully shot and the fight scenes are well choreographed. Sadly, the movie had long stretches that were boring and the fight scenes were too long and didn't meet my expectation (though the bar brawl is one of the best fight scenes ever).
One thing did bother me. How can they fly. I know people said suspension of disbelief but I need an explanation.
