Negative Positive
Title: overrated
Review: Hero can be appreciated only for its artistic vision and execution. It is beautifully shot, with sweeping camera angles, vivid costumes, and well choreographed fight(s). However, the movie is flawed at the core. The script is confused and loses its original goal. It becomes a schmaltzy, over-the-top display of colors and costumes with no point to it. It does have a nice little action sequence in the beginning with Jet Li and Donnie Yen but that is about all. THe other fights are just dramatic scenes that end up being slow motion shots of the actors faces as they fight.
