Hype

Rating: Null/10 (16 October 2003)

I didn't go all religious over it as I am expected to. The lack of content is not revolutionary, the recreations of other scenes are boring, the action is lame, the martial arts are not really, and the slaughter of asians wholesale for mindless fun doesn't appeal to me. Sorry to offend you! I didn't say anything about that, other than it doesn't appeal to me. If you've seen a movie by Fukasaku, Miike, either of the Kurosawa's, or Tsui Hark, or the movie miramax won't release, Zhang Yimou's Hero starring an actual martial artsist, Jet Li,why would you even care about this movie, which by the way opened at less b.o. than Once Upon a Time in Mexico, which no one celebrated? Guess I'm not cool.
