Hero

[Jim Roselando]

Hey all,


Has anyone watched the new Tarentino/Jet Li flick Hero?

My friend order the Chinese version thru the net. Great flick!

The background was fantastic.

Mostly Sword type stuff but a cool flick!

He only paid like $8- thru amazon and its not even out in the movies yet!

Do you mean the Zhang Yimou/Jet Li movie "Hero?" The one with Zhang Ziyi? If so, I own it as well. The action was great, especially the fight between Jet Li and Donnie Yen. But I liked the philosophical undertones much more.

Levi,


Thats the one! Really cool flick huh! Donnie Yen is a Bostonian! His mom runs a Wushu club a few miles from my home!

Glad you liked it!

Great movie. The fight between Donnie Yen and Jet Li had AWESOME cinematography. I also liked (it's been a while), the fight in the Palace with the billowing curtains everywhere... it seemed so surreal, like it really WAS a lengendary myth that you were seeing.

GREAT MOVIE. I bought it off Ebay a while ago, and it took a bit (and my Chinese Dictionary) to figure out how to turn on the English subtitles. :-D

And what about the score? A Tan Dun masterpiece.
