Ang lee's finest piece of cinema is now avalable on DVD. This was the winner of numerous academy awards and Oscars for best forgien film. In it's first week of release it grossed millions of dollars across the world. The plot of the film is very well structured with a very easy to follow and pick up half way through story. The charaters are very beleivable in the time that the film is set. The graphics, action sequences are excellent with a good lot of sword play all the way through the film. Martial arts fans will be loving it from start to finish, that's not to say it will only interest them. This is throughly enjoyable film for all the family, althought some of the younger viewers may find it hard to keep reading the subtitles and watching the film. All in all an excellent film and a worthwhile purchased to watched again and again.
