An outright beauty.

Rating: 10/10 (28 March 2005)

This is definitely one of 'THE' most beautiful movies in the market. Not only are the visuals and locations dripping in color, but the actors too have given excellent performances. Maggie, 'Flying Snow' delivers one of her most evocative performances in this movie. It is the beauty of her eyes, the stillness of the face that you cannot but watch the movie again and again to decipher her face. The fight sequences are more of a dance which pleases the soul and captivates the imagination of every Martial arts aficionado. What the fighters achieve is perfection of their art with perfect and precise ballet like movements to fight. There is absolutely no vulgarity of strength in the movements of these masters, but reminds one of the feel of satin on one's hands. Please watch the movie for Maggie's portrayal, or at least the fights or finally at least for Jet Li's action.
