Review of The Assassin (2015) by Bertoflyingfox — 15 Jan 2016

I'll start off by saying Qi Shu deserves recognition for her fight choreography in this movie, it was spectacular. Props to the whole crew involved with that.

Sadly I didnt enjoy much of the film. While the landscapes were beautiful, scenes just hung there with characters that have nothing to say to each other. "Silence" describes this movie well. I would've liked more dialogue explaining these complex characters/situations and a lot more fight scenes because (again) they were top-of-the-line.
