Hero was a false story

Rating: 3/10 (9 September 2005)

I watched only trailer,but that is enough to form my opinion against it.Hero was filled with pretense and falsity not only visually but historically.YiMou Zhang made a beautiful fictitious film without true grand spectacle a historical film are supposed to has.the so-called battle scenes are all funny ones:Qin army fired arrows not towards enemies but far into civilians in houses;also,the costume of soldiers of Qin army were seriously out of accord with real history;Those pupils and their teacher were quite fools that they stayed to paint in spite of coming arrows.Right pretense!The martial art designs are another failure:Jet Li was like a acrobat flying everywhere and used supernatural abilities that was a misleading and a exaggeration of true Kong Fu. So,if you would like to watch true epic films from China,"The emperor and The assassin","The great conqueror's concubine"and"The emperor's shadow" are my recommendations.
