    Yeah, here I am again. ;)

    House was awesome, but not as awesome as Hero IMHO. Damn, the setting, the colours, the sword fighting, it was again overwhelming.

    Share my opinion?

    The effects where great, the far fetch skills were amusing (stand down Legolas... you ain't good enough :grin: ), the autumn and bamboo scenery were incredible (and being a nature lover... that was already worth the money for me), Zhang Ziyi was beautiful and graceful. Now to criticize :D . The sword duel between the 2 lead was pathetic. Trinity of Matrix:Revolution, move over, Siaw-Mei just topped your death scene. The story was weird... what was suppose to be an "Empire vs Rebel" turned out to be a love triangle, with no conclusion to the "E vs R" plot and the love triangle ended... oh, go watch it... it is still watchable. :D

    It kind of left me hanging in the end. The movie, like nior said, didn't show the resolution of the war.

    Although yes, the imagery and fight choreography is great, and yes, I also found Hero a better movie.
