The latest martial arts flick directed by Zhang Yimou, the creator of the great
Hero
(here's my review), goes into wide release on Friday. Zhang Ziyi is a cutie as the blind kung-fuette, but I don't much like
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
-style movies much, and this one seemed fairly ho-hum, being far less visually inventive than
Hero
. I got bored about halfway through and went and watched
A Very Long Engagement
for awhile, which looked good, but the plot -- a complicated detective story in which the adorable Audrey "
Amelie
" Tatou searches for her fiancé after WWI -- was incomprehensible if you sneak in during the middle like I did. So, back to
Flying Daggers
, but I had missed the climactic set-piece fight and the ending wasn't any better than the beginning. Oh, well ...
