A Masterpiece

Rating: Null/10 (23 February 2001)

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" (CTHD) is a tremendous show of light, sound, clanging swords and -- most of all -- the most amazing cinematic effects of all time. This film breaks new ground, not only with the one-of-a-kind special effects but with a storyline that is truly unique. Every scene is perfectly scripted and set in such a way that the camera angle is *perfect* -- sometimes almost too perfect. Although communicating through subtitles, CTHD nevertheless hits the mark. If you see one film this year -- one film ever -- see "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". You will not be disappointed.
