An outstanding masterpiece of movie history, a combination of nature and human being

Rating: 10/10 (5 July 2004)

It's been a long time that I always wanted to write a comment of this great movie of my all times. But every time I click the keyboard, it goes blank in my mind, I don't know how to start with it, and more importantly and truly as I know perfectly well, is that I am so afraid that my comments, or words can't live up to this movie, as an old saying in Chinese goes, when things are so spectacular, words are not enough to describe it well. But still I like to and have to say a few words. Watching this movie I feel my heart and soul are fully occupied by the love, hatred, revenge, beautifulness, sadness of it. I cried over this movie, I am so touched by the story and so sad about Tristan, it's his wildness and characteristics that lead him doing those things, and that's why he became legend. He's such a brave man with unique ideas and behaviors, I love him so much! And I know there are thousands more like me in this world. It's a perfect movie, with excellent acting by Brad, Hopkins, unforgettable music and settings, profound meanings and strong wills go along with, and every time I hear the music I feel the power of this movie inside me. And I am so stunned to see the low rating of this movie here, and certainly not a good amount of people vote, I have the same question as another user : Why didn't this movie receive an Oscar Award? Why Brad didn't receive the Best Actor of Oscar? Watching it and feeling it, you will know the hero inside yourself!
