Well crafted movie that gets better with every viewing

Rating: Null/10 (11 September 2002)

I loved this movie when I saw it the first time. I thought it was a very well made movie and don't agree with a number of -ve comments posted here.
And I can imagine why some people didn't like the fact that people could fly in this movie. Some have said that its far from reality. Well, I would just say one thing to them - if you care so much about reality why watch a movie. Why not go watch a documentary or even better go watch a baseball game. If you want reality. You need to have a little bit of imagination and use it to believe that its possible to fly when one reaches a certain level of mastery. Ok now that we have gotten that out of the way...
The story was gripping, the pace good, the martial arts sequences exquisite, the photography fantastic (I especially loved the shots of the desert and the mountains) and direction just superb. What more do you want from a movie.
If you still haven't seen it just GO RENT THE DVD or even better JUST BUY IT!!!
