After all, it is a blockbuster with a cost of 200 million US dollars, and the scenes, shapes, and stunts are not mentioned. As for the storyline, I admit that I thought it was simple. I did once think that Prince Tusi was the one who put the blame on others and plotted to usurp the throne. But then I thought about it, Oscar-winning actor Ben Kingsley should not only play pure dragon tricks. Jake Gyllenhaal's transformation through this film is at least half-successful. Muscles and skills are basically okay. As for acting skills, commercial films generally do not require acting skills. The Princess of Almaty played by Bond girl Gemma Arterton isn't amazing enough. Of course, maybe she's the type of modern beauty the director appreciates. But the film reflects ancient Persia and ancient Central Asia. In this sense, Ang Lee is very good at choosing people. Tang Wei looks like the beauty on the old Shanghai cigarette case and poster.
