I just came back from seeing Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and want to tell everybody if they love Karate Scenes like Matrix, Bruce Lee or even Jackie Chang movies, go see Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon !!

I can honestly say the scenes are probably one of the best if not the best I have ever watched. The movie in general was good, slow at times, but you will be in total awe when watching the fight sequences. Bottom line, it was worth the $9.50

I've been hearing a lot of good about this film, but I've got a problem with subtitles - they just annoy the hell out of me. The clips I have seen of the fighting that goes on does look mighty impressive tho!

Great film. I definitely recommend it. And the same fight coordinator as the Matrix choreographed CTHD.

definetly a great movie, i dont mind subtitles as long as the movie is good. Like john woo's the killer or even older movies like peter lorres crime and punishment.

But i still say nothing beats bruce lee and chuck norris in the collesium. Then again Kareem Abdul Jabbar Vs. Bruce Lee in Game of Death was cool as well. No special effects no fancy shit. but hey thats just me.


Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour unannounced,
unplanned for like a scaring over-friendly
guest you've brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
& gives us wings where we had shoulders
smooth as raven's claws

I am the same way about subtitles, but you can pick up what is going on even if you read half of them.

Fight scences A+
Plot C-...it was a chick flick...that ending did totally blow
But just based on the action sequences, it is defintley worth the $6 - $9 depending on where you live ($8.50...FU Hoboken)

Looks like I'm heading to the movies this week! Actually, I figured, if I didn't get to see this flick in the theater, I'd rent the DVD. Movie prices as it is are nearing $10, so $3.99 for a DVD on my home theater is a WAY better deal :)

My girlfriend hated it, but I don't get why... she's no stranger to subtitles (loves anime)... she just thought it sucked. I guess the plot lacked a bit, but the fights more than made up for it...

The movie would have been better if it were dubbed. But the action was so awesome.

I've seen it twice already, I might go for a third time. It was just enough of a chick flick that your girl will like it too, and the fight scenes are phenomenal. The story line wasn't too bad, but the ending was kinda lame, more like it ran out of steam than anything else. But overall, it's definately a must see.
