Review for Hero

The article that I am linking to is a critical review of Hero. The article, written by Jurgen Fauth, criticizes Hero by calling the fight scenes "more ... [like] ballet than traditional chop socky." The author also gives the movie a historical approach by comparing it to other previous movies of its kind. In a paragraph, Fauth summarizes the movie so that anyone who was confused throughout the film could understand it. The reviewer praises the mise-en-scene of the movie but also states that this gets old after a while and the boring plot does not helps its cause. Because of the redundant fight scenes and the lack of interest in the film, Fauth gives the movie 3 out of 5 stars. Clicking on the link above should take you to the article.
