Pure poetry in motion!

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 2002)

Oh yes! That's EXACTLY what this film is! Poetry.
The fight scene's are works of literature that no book could try to describe - I'm not even going to insult the film by trying to analyse and describe them!! (mind you - the film itself is based on a book, so maybe you can describe the fight sequence's!)
Some people have bashed this film because of the plot's impossibilities, and the impossibility of people flying, and jumping as high and as graceful as the characters in this film can.
GROW UP!!! Yeah, that's right - GROW. UP. For the two simple reasons
1) It's a bloody film!! 2) Ever heard of the expression 'suspension of disbelief'?!
Anyway, this film is beautiful to look at, and worthy of the Oscars that it won.
The love story is pure tragedy, and I cried like a fool at the end!!!
So, with great set pieces, great characters/acting, splendid direction, and graceful choreography this film is a delight to watch.
Do yourself a favour - WATCH this film!
PERFECT 10!
Enjoy!
