I thought i'd add a different perspective to
the other review. I thought the film was really good. It's
wonderfully shot, the action sequences are brilliant and there
are so many little touches that make the film that much more
enjoyable. The only problem i have is that there are seven
main charecters and not only is it dificult to follow every
individuals journey through the film, but the characters are
not as well developed as a consequense. Other than that i
thought is was superb, and it's not a film you can compare
with crouching tiger because its on a totally different scale,
with very different ideas about how martial arts should be
displayed on the big screen.
