| I love this movie. It was another one of those 'had it on VHS, MUST own it on DVD' movies.
I am usually quite critical of most movies coming from HK and find them either lame and embarassing comedies or hyper-violent action movies, but this is a true pearl I will love, forever.
How can an 'anti-violence' guy love a movie about a professional female assassin (and you don't even see her naked)? Because this movie is more about the psychological impact the job has on the assassin than it is about the job itself.
It's not a movie about killing. It's movie about a killer who wishes she could have a normal life, who wishes she could fall in love, share pictures and talk about life witht the guy she unfortunately is falling for.
It's a beautiful, gorgeous movie that's going out in a blaze and that is praise hard to come by from an anti-gun guy like me.
Gorgeous! Watch it! |
