Anticipating, by Neil

There's much to be excited about this movie. For fans of classic kung-fu, I think Hero will be a spectacle of great fight scenes and high-flying action. The movie has an awesome look to it, with a very intereting color scheme and visual effects that will be a treat to the eye. I can't wait to see it!
