Best Film of the Decade

Rating: 10/10 (28 January 2001)

This film is truly a masterpiece. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has redeemed my faith that movies really can take us to another place. The bad thing about this movie is that it is misunderstood. The truly sad thing about this movie is that shows how many people have lost that child-like wonder we all used to have when we went to go see movies. This movie is fantastic and can be enjoyed on many levels, but the part I liked best about it is that it brought me back to a world where mystical powers existed, warriors fought evil and avenged masters. Like everyone else that saw the movie I too heard snickers and laughing, but not from everyone, only from a few. I go to the movies to be entertained, if I want reality I will watch CNN. This was a fantastic journey into a world that I hope to see more of. I think that every once and a while a movie comes along that you like so much and find so amazing, it makes you realize how much you love movies and you fall in love with them all over again. Couching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was one of those movies, for me anyway. This movie not only had a great story, but was fantastically made. the cinematography was nothing short of breathtaking, special effects were amazing, and the acting was top notch. I hope this wins Best Picture, the only thing that might be holding it back is the subtitles, which is a shame because this should be Best Picture. In the end everyone has their own say and only you can say if you liked it or not. I do recommend this, but not to everyone. Many people go to the movie and when something happens that is unbelievable, they say this movie is terrible, that couldn't happen. I feel bad for you. you have to suspend your belief when you go to the movies. the movie was not supposed to be totally real, it's a movie. The story dealt with mystical powers and warriors. But who am I to complain? Feel free to Email me with your say on the movie, good or bad.
