House of Flying Daggers

January 22nd, 2005

Heather and I caught a matinee of House of Flying Daggers earlier this week. I found it to be a resounding disappointment - the film is cinematically beautiful but largely void of substance. Basically you have a ho-hum love triangle that has an ending that reminded me of Reservoir Dogs sans the character development or drama.

I felt Yimou Zhang’s Hero was a much better example of the genre.

    Nate and I saw that, too. Same reaction. Too bad, huh?
