This is pure poetry...the art of movie making at its best!!

Rating: 9/10 (22 June 2003)

It is one of the most beautiful movies I have seen so far... If you enjoyed "the hidden tiger..." you will most probably love this one.

When I say art I really mean it....this is a truly beautiful movie. The composition of picture, music and content is a masterpiece!
If you feel like watching another kung-fu, action packed movie, do not go for it!!! If you feel like sinking into the world of chinesee legends (do not expect dragons and such stuff though), culture, philosophy and beauty - this is the thing for you!!!
I just cannot express how fascinated I am with this one....a must see for anyone able to appreciate the subtle magic of chinesee thought and art!
