Beware the version

Rating: Null/10 (14 March 2002)

When I first saw this film, it was at a cinema, and it blew me away; straight into my all-time top 3. So good in so many ways! BUT I just watched it again on video - the dubbed English Language version. Epic cinematography never transfers well to the small screen, but when the sound is compromised as well.... you must ONLY watch the Chinese version (subtitled), and on the largest screen available to you!
