The new Jet Li, Quentin T. directed film looks too dope.

nah its not a Quentin Tarantino Film.  He just is going to present in the states, i hope miramax doesnt edit this film that received many awards in the original country it was released(not sure what country).  But yea it does look good. 

[Maestro Minded]

that movie came out last year  in Sweden... its a very good and deep movie

[Rain]

yeah its a fuckin tops movie - the best ive seen in a while. I don't think Miramax is editing it for the American release. I'm pretty sure the reason Tarantino agreed to present it was so that it may stay in its original cut. It's taken so long to get to western nations though. it came out in China towards the end of 2002.

[Throwback]

yea i've seen it already. its hard to understand the movie.

[Skindiana bon3z]

I already have the import from China, got it off amazon....pretty good movie....great plot, only thing is I had to use subtitles cause it's in chinese or something 

[bez]

looks dizzzzope.

[Eddie G.]

It might be edited cuz its rated PG-13

Is it graphic?

Is it graphic?   

its not that graphic - alot of martial arts but the death toll is minor, almost non-existant. and i dont remember there being very much blood either.

Miramax, the distributor, apparently cut out 20 minutes from the movie because they found that part to be "too Asian and confusing" for western audiences. Then-Miramax honcho Harvey Weinstein made a deal with Quentin Tarantino that he'd release the film uncut if Tarantino would allow a "Quentin Tarantino Presents" tag at the beginning of the film. Tarantino agreed.

so they werent cutting it for violence, just confusion.

Thanks for clearin it up

[MANBEARPIG.]

u can buy alot of films like this here in cali such as Shaolin Soccer or Battle Royale or Naked Weapon, my homie has Hero havent watched it yet

[Sikotic™]

If Tarantino's name wasn't on it I probably would of never been interested in the movie. Smart move by Miramax.

[Javier]

man i hate it when they cut shit out...sometimes they leave out important shit.  FUCK!  20 min?!  FUCK!  Thats alot.  I rather see the directors original intent, who cares if "we" might not understand it.  This is what happen with Once Upon a time in the WEst and was unsuccesful in the states but succesful else where it was released in its complete version.  DAmn
