This is a perfect movie! from my point of view it represents all what war is. it shows it a wretched, dirty and bloody thing. this movie succeeded in achieving what many of Hollywood movies tried, but completely failed, like troy or Alexander. i consider it as good as "crouching tiger, hidden dragon", or maybe slightly less good. the feelings of the characters are miraculously expressed just through eyes and movements. the battle-scenes are really realistic and, in my opinion, there are some really cool fighting moves, especially with the spear. it's one of the best warrior movies ever made and a definite proof of the superiority of Far east cinematography over the "western" movies. the best performance was done by Zhang Ziyu(sorry, but i don't know how to spell her surname). i could actually feel the pain she suffers, as a princess, outside her "golden cage", suddenly facing the reality, as she sees people dying. all in all, this is a wonderful movie, very worthy of watching. a true visual experience for any fan of warrior movies and a good chance for those who dislike this type of movies to start liking them. A true must-see!!!
