A different way of telling a story
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
I went to see this film on Thursday, and loved it. I am from Japan and my family are here in Singapore at the moment. Without doubt this film will be a hit in Japan. I hope it open there soon. Jang is very popular at home in Japan, and this is the kind of love story we love. I cried three times. and such a great ending. I hate action movie, but this film is not action it is very emotional, best dance film I have seen. I felt the emotions of all the characters, especially the Emi character. and the Korean scenes a beautifully filmed. I will tell all my friends in Japan this is a must see. I know Jang Hyuk was in Japan last week promoting his new series, and he was mobbed and asked about this film... of course the Japanese cant wait to see it.. and now I have seen it I know they will not be disappointed!!
I saw this film yesterday at the cineleasure in Singapore with my whole family to a totally full cinema and my family and the whole audience loved it. This was the second time I had seen the film and I actually appreciated the story and the performances even more on second viewing. The film is beautifully shot and the actors put in a very believable performance. There are many really well crafted scenes especially the scene with Jason Scott Lee being attacked intercut with Jang Hyuk dancing very well done... The film is not an action film but a really well developed emotional drama, with dancing and a martial arts pattern duel which I had never seen before. Very well made film.
Dance of the Dragon is a beautifully-shot film with great performances especially from the leads, Jang Hyuk, Fann Wong and Jason Scott Lee. The story could have been more tightly edited, and more realistic locales could have been used, but generally the film is lensed well with strong characterization. Dialogue bordered on the cheesy/hokey at times though - it could be improved. The soundtrack bordered on the dramatic and could have been rendered more subtly. But generally, what blew me away was the strength of the film through the performances of the cast. They raised the film to a level unprecedented for an international cast and crew. Jang and Fann should see success if this film travels.
I went to the sneak peaks screening of this film on the weekend at the cathay. I can't believe the Korean scenes were filmed in Singapore. I have been to Korean villages just like the one in the film, very authentic, well done, also the Korean family scenes are exactly the way I experienced it, most Singaporeans may not have seen these villages in Korea, the film is spot on!.. Jang Hyuk in this film gives his best performance to date, very different from the tough rolls in his series. Fann looks beautiful and I cried in two of her scenes. Jason Scott Lee is looking great and his performance is both touching and rewarding. well worth seeing this film!!!!!
