Boobs galore!
Went to watch "Curse of the golden flower" yesterday...Didnt have much expectation as I have watched "Hero" and "House of Flying daggers" and was totally bored to tears. To my surprise, this one was quite easy to follow...not becos of the boobs...haha. But there were really so many scenes with bouncing boobs that its abit difficult to concentrate on the story. Gong li acting was really good and in my opinion way better than Zhang ziyi who is so over rated. Jay chou was just....funny. His acting was okay, not that there were alot of scenes for him to act in the first place. But the funny thing was, everytime he comes on screen or makes an expression, the entire theatre will laugh! I guess everyone just went to see how bad Jay's acting was...which is quite a sad thing considering he is not a professional actor. Acting beside Gong li and Chow Yun Fatt just makes him look like a golden prop. The story was quite similar with a show I watched recently...."The banquet"...too similar in fact...incest, betrayal, plotting against the king...and alot of ballet-like fighting sequences...I feel that asian directors are trying to hard to impress the people in Hollywood..and all these ancient epics with elaborate sets and fanciful fight scenes just get a little too artificial..Face it Zhang Yimou, there can only be one Ang Lee..
