Simply the closest thing to a perfect movie ever made!, 13 December 1999
Author: (gwailo97) from Philadelphia, PA

This is one of the few times a classic Chinese novel has been accurately brought to life on the big screen.So why do I say this film is so great? How about brilliant acting, incredible cinematography, great music & sound effects, and the most un-Hollywood ending of all time.I would give a kidney to find a CD of the soundtrack. And never has a film made you want to see the sequel so bad in your life. My only regret is that Ronny Yu will never be able to top this film. Flat-out brilliant!
