    Watched this last night

    Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. WOW!

    The fight scenes are out of this world and all the wire flying is done beautifully, so i thought i'd go spend £12 on it at play, only to find :

    £6.99 WHAT a bloody bargain.

    But youve got to understand the chineese way of film before watching it. In classic chineese stories heros can fly or at least jump very far and sometimes have special powers.

    I dont like sig pics so i turn off sigs Which doesnt help when i dont know what ive written here! DOH!

    Oh mate..please dont be offended.....but it so much better than most other un-realistic films.....and best of all.....its a most creative film. I have never watched a film, that was "dubbed" and been so drawn in by the acting!

    Imagine comparing it to Spiderman......or Daredevil....both great films.....but also totally impossible (well...maybe )

    you see what I'm saying.......its totally the right film in the right place....even at £20 (what I paid long ago)

    Its a damn fine masterpiece.

    And.....the wire work was a deliberate attempt at NOT having computers involved..not a budget decision.

    Its is smooth, and it flows into my mind with no effort, its almost a hypnotising experience because it absorbs me so fast.

    I love it ...

    but that probably shows
