MOVIE REVIEW
Martial arts are taken to the next level in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a movie that breaks all the rules about kung fu movies being mindless. Last year, The Matrix showed that a smart plot and fast and furious action scenes can be blended together, but that movie didn't take that meld to the epic level, as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. It's a revenge story, a love story, and an action movie all in one, and people of all genres can come together and enjoy it. Full movie review »
