Seven Swords (Qi jian)

Post by Fanfan »

I was waiting for a long time this movie, and it was great !

I saw the trailer in Seoul last september, and it has just been released here, his first movie i remember is Chinese Ghost Story, my favorite one : The Chinese feast (you must see this one ! food and fun), and the lasts i saw : Legend of Zu (so aesthetic), Black Mask 2. There is a research in tsui Hark movies, and okay sometimes it is not a masterpiece, but it is always original, and i really enjoy this one ! now i am waiting for the DVD version (4 hours, the cinema version is about 2h30 )

a review here :

Dear Readers,
Please be aware 7 Swords is not for children.
If you like Tsui Hark, you will enjoy this movie.
I look forward to the full version to fill in all the the single dvd's breaks in continuity...
Really, March of the Penguins is the best dvd I have seen in a while!
Best wishes to all.

There is already an international HK (zone 0) version. It is the same release that we have in movie theatre.
