Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Sexylocher Masterful Movie

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

kxyang This is a historical martial arts drama with a lot of talking. This movie has great use of color. The story is the main focus in this story, although there are a lot of cool fight scenes. Very philosophical movie with deep themes. Not a hollywood movie, but a movie for people who have brains.Don't expects explosions and stuff, although there are a few CGI effects in the movie. Beautiful movie, soundtrack, and story. The final 15 minutes are also amazing.

anselmdaniel This review contains spoilers.Hero is a martial arts film directed by Zhang Yimou and stars Jet Li as the nameless hero. Nameless claims to have dispatched the assassins that have made an attempt on the King of Qin's life. The King allows Nameless to present his case in person to him.Hero is a beautiful movie that has a great story. Most of the movie is presented as flashbacks and renditions of Nameless' story. This plays into why the movie looks so pretty as much of the movie exists in an idealized form that exists in the character's heads. The cinematography is astounding for his fantastic work. Almost every scene is beautiful to look at with color playing a role in every scene.The story is also riveting. Although it can be hard to follow with much of it being subjective due to memory, the movie makes the main plot of the assassins easy enough to follow.The action in this movie set the bar for the time it was released. This movie had amazing stunt-work and along with the directing, it elevated the action to be both entertaining and story-driven.I highly recommend Hero. This movie is a complete package.

sathyasingh-10871 A beautiful masterstroke from director Zhang Yimou, Hero is a beautifully constructed wuxia film that is infused with history, Chinese culture, honor, and themes of overcoming hate and the pain that can be caused from not conquering that hate. Through this film, Zhang Yimou not only creates a terrifically entertaining martial arts action film, but he also creates a film that is a moving and stirring look at the unification of China and the sacrifices that went into that monumental step.While the movie does take some liberties with historical retelling, what top box office film doesn't? Without fail, the movie plucks at the heart-strings of its viewers and masterfully captures the human aspect of War and how it affects the minds of the ruled.

jiosongjs This is my second Chinese movie that I've ever watched even when I have been living in China for 12 years. First of all, I thought that all the Chinese movies weren't as good as American or Korean. Also the first movie that I watched didn't really go well, and it was boring. However, this movie impressed me a lot. I've watched this movie in school for film class. At first, I was not expecting anything because I didn't really like Chinese movie. However, as I watched all the movie, cinematography started to impress me. The story was kind of weird (I guess that's the reason why I couldn't give 10) but the cinematography grabbed my attention and started to make me enjoy the movie more. I think this movie have lots of graphic and lots of unrealistic scenes, but the back ground and cinematography is great. Those two factor saved this movie, without those two, I think this movie was not that great.
