Title: much ado about not much
Review: thie movie is like a pretty girl who is so impressed with herself but is shallow and hollow inside--- sooo impressed with his images & flashbacks- a soundtrack that swells so often the effect after a while is deadening--portentousness gives way to pretense---the director was obviously awash in the beauty of what he was shooting--but the constant flashbacking and the lush but ultimately phony soundtrack destroys all momentum --the dialogue is often ridiculous --- even the title is phony pandering to all those really good oriental movies-as is the whole meaningleess enterprise --the story underneath all the portentousness is weak--hence all the posturing to make it look like something is going on==but its the emperors new clothes----theres really nothing here-- real phony crap-- that looks pretty but is annoying and ultimately unwatchable as u realize its all boloney
