Truly a masterpiece
I don't ever do written reviews nor do I give a ten unleas I absolutely mean it. I'm a very harsh critic but I have to give this movie the honor it's due. Without further ado my critique below.I don't understand why this movie is rated so low. It'd truly a masterpiece. I love how the director decided to portay this movie/story. It's both a beautiful painting and poetry in motion. The screen shots are amazing as well as the atmosphere. It feels so realistic. This is not your average cliche movie/tv drama series at all. The fight scenes are very realistic and I love that there's not any background music. It adds to the ambiance and realism of the movie making it feels more real and alive. Almost as if you're in the rooms of the movie itself.
The story basically centers around the female main character and slowly depicts her character. Both a lethal sharp blade and also a deeply hurt individual. Her acting is very deep and profound portrayed in both her expressions and movements.
Out of all the historical Chinese films I've ever watched this movie has to be the most accurate of them all. Not that the story itself was based on historical facts but the atmosphere, costumes, actors mannerisms, and sets all portray how ancient China really was back then. Absolutely fantastic.
Overall, this movie is telling a story that dosen't need to be covered over with background music or a lot of dialog to be able to coney it meaning, giving the story more depth. Beautifully portrayed.
