Gotta luv Chinese movies when they're done right. I watched in the space of 3 days Infernal Affairs �o�g��, Zhang Yimou's Hero [english link] Ӣ�� and The Cat Returns, the latest from Miyazaki's Studio Ghibli.

The average = The Cat Returns:
This one wasn't directed by Miyazaki, and it shows. Although visually it's thouroughly detailed like other Miyazaki films, the plot left a lot of gaps.

The good = Infernal Affairs:
Another good cop bad cop story, but it kept me guessing till the end. Funnies: the Mainland Chinese version has a different ending [more satisfying in my opinion] and rumour has it that you'll be able to chose how the film ends on the forthcoming DVD.

The stunner = Hero:
One story, with 3 variations and 6 tones of colour. Zhang Yimou's first martial arts film, starring Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Maggie Chung, Jet Li and Zhang Ziyi (of Crouching Tiger fame). The grandiose and lushness is incomparable. Need I say more??
