Not perfect but definitely worth seeing

The clear and unified form and scene should be the characteristics of director Zhang Yimou's film and television.

A film from a long time ago, the picture is exquisite, the country style is full, and the beautiful and elegant colors are very eye-catching. The dance clip + makeup is just right and really amazing.

The plot has advanced layer by layer and has been reversed several times. I really like the plot of the play within the play. But it can't be ruled out that some of the content in it is really stretched, for example, after picking up the wild flowers in the front, it started to snow emm, and I won't say much about other dramas involved.

Overall it's not bad, it would be really great if the plot could be thought out a little more.

House of Flying Daggers quotes

  • Jin: [speaking to Mei] I thought you were hot as fire. In fact you're cool as water.

  • Jin: What's your name?

    Mei: Mei

    Jin: Mei?

    Jin: Every girl here is named after a flower. Why is yours so plain?

    Mei: I don't want to compete with those others girls. The flowers here can hardly be called flowers. Real flowers bloom in the wilderness.
