I've seen that movie yesterday and I have to say it's one of the best I've seen this year.

I almost felt like after watching The Matrix for the first time.
Awesome Kung Fu and a great story, beautiful scenes, a great movie. It's subtitled but that was OK.

When you think about going to the movies, this one is a must see.

Yeah I've heard good things about that film...

Probably won't make it to the cinema here in the UK...Subtitled films rarely make it to the big screen here :(

Maybe one to get on DVD..

It's coming to more theaters in January and February so hang tight. I can't wait to see it a second time.

Any chance of it ever being dubbed?

As I was watching for a second time I started thinking about how it would sound dubbed over. I don't think it would work very well. Although Chow Yun Fat and Michelle Yeoh speak english well. They would have to do the voice-overs.

Voice-overs suck. I'd rather read subtitles!

<i>Voice-overs suck. I'd rather read subtitles!</i>

The problem with subtitiles is you spend more time reading than watching. Once I know the story well enough, I would definitly want subtitles becuase I would know what's going on, but the first time you see a movie, you need to pay attention to the effects, time, and effort the actors put into makeing this movie. I mean, that's what the movie is about, right? Maybe it's just me, heh.
