Reviewed by ccthemovieman-1 8/10 After two viewings, I am still not sure what to make of this film,story-wise. I have no problems exalting praise for the cinematographywhich, for many people, was the drawing point. It's what got me towatch the movie. I had heard it was the most beautiful film ever made.Well, I wouldn't go that far, but it IS visually spectacular. It's evenmore appreciated now that I watched one of the documentaries in which Ilearned to what great lengths director Yimou Zhang the crew went to, tomake this look so good. It took a lot of patience, waiting for just theright conditions, such as the smooth, silvery lake which only was calmtwo hours a day.Overall, I didn't think the story was that appealing except for thegood message at the end, about the good of all being more importantthan satisfying one's personal vengeance.

As for the rest, perhaps being a Westerner unfamiliar withEastern culture, it's harder for me to relate to the mind-set. I wouldbe interested to know how Asians viewed this story, as opposed tosimilar films.Sometimes I think these wild Crouching Tiger-like action scenes are toolong and overdone, but at least in this film they were very originaland, once again, more visuals feasts than anything else. On my secondviewing, I discarded the subtitles and went with the dubbed version toconcentrate more on the stunning look of this film. Evenif I don't quite follow everything, each scene is such eye-candy thatyou can't go wrong viewing this. Reviewed by brokencode2002 Director Zhang Yimou's Hero is playing around the country to widespreadcritical acclaim. It is undoubtedly one of the most visually beautifulmovies of our time. However, American audiences may not fullyappreciate what message comes wrapped in this beautiful package.Hero rewrites history's judgment on the movie's central figure, theEmperor Qin a ruthless leader who unified China through the mostbrutal means by depicting him as a tough but benevolent andmisunderstood monarch, in the process also changing the story of thefailed assassination attempt on him as well.The historical Emperor Qin was known for his cruelty. The movie doesrefer to his practice of slaughtering entire villages. It is silentabout the tortures he employed, the draconian legal code that involvedthe cutting off of limbs, his burning of books and suppression ofschools of thought, or such incidents as the burying alive of hundredsof scholars who had objected to his rule.The reason for the differences between the historical Emperor Qin andthe movie's retelling may be found in the needs of the ChineseCommunist Party (CCP).Even before unifying China, the then-King of Qin was hated and fearedby both rivals and subjects alike. The neighboring state of Yan(replaced with 'Zhao' in the movie) knew that the state of Qin aimedeventually to attack. Officials in the Yan kingdom hired an assassin tokill the King of Qin and help them escape imminent defeat. ![]() Jing Ke, theman selected for the job, had to find a method to bring himself closeto the King to complete his mission.
