I can't even begin to describe it.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has essentially become part of our world view, and justifiably so. I can't even begin to describe how masterful this movie is. The plot of course has some warriors trying to recapture a stolen sword, but that's the bare minimum. The movie is a fantasy brought to real life in every sense. It is something that you will remember for eternity. Chow Yun-Fat, Michelle Yeoh and Zhang Ziyi make the characters superhuman, but never silly (although Zhang Ziyi's battle in that one scene almost seemed like comic relief). Anyway, this is the sort of movie that you have to see to believe. And believe it you will.
