Having loved Crouching Tiger I thought this film would be good. Unfortunately, in my humble opinion, it was very poor. Sure the cinematography was good, but printing a book on silk pages wouldn't make the story good or even particularly well told.

I loved the storytelling, the pace of the film, and the action. I suppose it makes a nice change from hollywood yarn and stuff.

What annoys me most is that Tarantino is getting a lot of credit for this film and he has nothing to do with it at all....he's just the Presenter!!

All the filming, Direction, Production etc etc etc was done by other people...

Super Film this. I loved everything about it...

Who cares? By putting his name with it, it's ensuring lots more people who wouldn't know about it have access to it and a reason to watch it. If this spreads the success of the film (which it deserves), this can only be a good thing? It's not like Tarantino's walking around saying he made it :D

It wouldn't have been released at all if Tarantino hadn't allowed them to put his name to it In Europe it may have been released anyway, but in the US it wouldn't have seen the light of day without someone endorsing it.

I love the films with that cast in it, the older ones really with the comedy and martial arts not like the serious ones of Hidden Dragon, Daggers and Hero.

Can't remember the names of the films, but they show them late night on BBC 1 every now and then, does anybody have any idea on what they are called the BBC versions are dubbed into English and look from the 90's.

Good film, a very welcome break from the usual bollocks we have to watch in the name of entertainment.

my friend hated it though, not enough guns apparantly :/
