This movie is beautiful and elegant; great shot and directed; touching and humorous. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the movie of 2000.
This is the story of two women during the Ching Dynasty. One of them tries to find justice and honor in her whole life, but it’s too late to discover the unfulfilled love. Another woman tries passionately to break free from the constraint society; even if it means giving up her privileges for a life of crime and passion. There’s an ethereal dramatic effect here that transcends a primary function of imagination and storytelling. Successfully applies its fantastical elements to develop story, character, and a kind of poetic license that captures the beauty of its own spirit.
It’s an action movie that doesn't try to blow you out of your seat, but rather it captures you in suspended awe for prolonged periods of time. Going into the film, I was prepared to be awed by the spectacular martial-arts sequences. But what caught me by surprise was how emotionally invested I became in the characters.
I never watch this movies. I would like to watch this movies so much when I read your blog ;)
