if you like martial arts films this is the one you must see!
jet li in lead role...
story is happening 200 B.C. when there were several kingdoms in china and they were all in war... the story focuses on four murdurers who are suposed to eliminate the king who is trying to join china into one kingdom
the photography/camera is beautiful, with all those calssic elements in martial arts films - much alike crouching tiger, hidden dragon
highly recomended!

damn, it feels like i've been waiting years to see this film!! It has some of my favourite actors in it, Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung, Zhang Ziyi, and Zhang Yimou is an excelent director too... how could it not be excelent?
Not sure when its out over here, maybe it will go straight to DVD?

i've seen seven samurai and its one i'll be getting soon on dvd.
i wouldn't buy a film just because an actress is in it, musa sound really good from the few reviews i've read
2046 is the new film from wong kar wai. Its kind of a sequel to 'In the mood for love' (one of the best films i've seen)

ive seen trailers on web - looking good , but im a little affraid - americans can put their national flag almost everywhere amd this film is the last thing that needs this .
about Kurosawa - his films are my favourite. i have all of them , watching for the 10000000000 time every wek and everyone of them - theres nothing better.
although i like new technology too :)

i just like a lot of asian films in general, chinese, japanese, whatever... they all produce some amazing films, chinese cinamatography is amazing though. I've never seen a film look as good as 'In the mood for love.

If your interested in that time period and have a PSOne/PS2/PC/Saturn/etc. I suggest you try and get your hands on some 'Romance of the 3 Kingdoms' games.
Here's a link to a review of the newest one: Romance

i order via web...its illegal ofcourse so they're pretty cautious, but very reliable...but i could get it for free if i'd bother, apperantly you can get all this films on the web (i think on sharereactor) as my buddy downloaded all this films already...anyway its only 1,5 EUR/piece so i rather just order it cos im to lazy to look on the internet myself, or burn a copy from my buddy :)
