House of Flying Daggers

It was good!... i don't know why everybody keeps on telling me its bad, boring, inunderstandable for the average audience...
hmm... if you don't try thinking about the meaning of the colors and the "maksud tersirat" then i think its a rather enjoyable movie... sad-lah, but enjoyable...
well, at least it's better than "Hero"... Zhang Yimou's previous show which really was inunderstandable to the intellingence of the average Malaysian cinema-goer...
its not that i don't think there isn't any "maksud tersirat" but its just that you can just look at the "surface story" and enjoy it by itself...
the flying dagger scenes are REALLY GOOD... yeah, besides the scenery &tc... the bamboo scene is much more believable den the wan in "Crouching Tiger.."... and the fight in the flower fields is really good...:) i oso think Z.Ziyi did a good job at playing a blind girl in the beginning...

now all i'm waiting for is "Puteri Gunung Ledang" coming out on the 31st of August, our Independence Day... the clips & trailers seem pretty okay... M.Nasir as Hang Tuah looks good...
