April 20, 2004There'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!

April 10, 2004I saw it about one and half years ago and I loved it. It is a must see if you like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. In my personal opinion, Crouching Tiger has stronger story line but Hero has much better visual effect.

March 29, 2004has some good action scenes yet most of the movie is plagued by what i believe is unecessary drama. But the balance between both is seen so this movie recieves a B+ from me so go see it
