Upon reading three hundreds or so comments:

Rating: Null/10 (19 February 2001)

Discard quibble from the clueless and there seem to be no objections to greatness of this movie.
Comments from thegilamon were especially enlightening (about 40-60 comments before this one, savor the style too). I have to admit I didn't get that `other' love tension upon my first viewing. Perhaps because it is `unwholesome' to me as it would be to Li Mu Bai. I saw the trees, to be sure. I still think, perhaps wrongfully, the final leap was due to Jen's free spirit multiplied by teenager's idealism - she wouldn't fit the schooling. Come to think of it she wouldn't fit anywhere but those clouds.

9/10 (not 10/10, because I didn't get it first time)
