A movie that goes straight into your heart and soul.

Rating: 10/10 (12 May 2001)

Well, can a movie be better then this? Probably not that easy...When I saw this movie for the first time I became very intrigued! I wasn't really prepared of the deepness of this film when I saw it the first time. When I saw it the second time, I was more like in a sort of dream-like state. Believe me, I have seen a lot of movies, but I've never felt this strong for a movie. It's like the environment and the mystery of the story gets to you from the bottom of your soul. The music sometimes intrigues you so much that you forget that you sit in a movie theatre, you wish you were there!
The photo is ingenious! The way the camera moves in relation to the music is in perfect relation. Take for example the scenes in the bamboo forest when Li Mu Bai is chasing Yu Jiao Long (Jen)...breathtaking... The fantasy plot is genuine and real. You want this world to exist! This is Asian culture, nature and music to the limit. The fact that the speak mandarin does a great deal to the movie. It is very easy to like this movie and it goes as far away from "Bruce Willis saves the world" as you can get.
I havn't given you a summary of the film, but I've given you a taste of the sense of feeling you can get after you've experienced it. I can truly say that Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon breathes through you, leaves a trace in your heart and gives harmony to your mind. It's a must see!
