Set your imaginations free

I would like to address something very important before I go on to say what a great movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is. For those of you who did not like this movie simply because of the fact that people can fly in the movie, then I feel that you shouldn't be watching movies at all. The movie is set in sort of a fantasy China, where warriors are treated as demi-gods. It's as if there were dragons and wizards with magical powers in the old tales of knights and chivalry. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon IS NOT BASED ON ANY HISTORICAL FACTS. This film is a fairy tale about four individuals whos tragic romance reflect each others. It's hard to understand why people can be so unimaginative, but enough of that. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is simply the best movie I've seen in awhile. In fact, it is the best film I have seen all year. Everything about the movie is absolutely amazing, from the cinematography to the pacing, director Ang Lee has created a stunning classic. Rather than simply making a kung-fu film with elements of romance, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is a romantic film with elements of kung-fu.
This film is something that I for one won't be forgetting anytime soon.
