十面埋伏

A couple of weeks ago we saw Zhang Yimou's 张艺谋 House of Flying Daggers 十面埋伏. (That's a lousy English title--it sounds like pidgin English.) Zhang's going downhill: it's a very pretty movie, but the plot is silly. Still, the blind bean-shooting scene near the beginning is cute, and the bamboo forest fight is better than Ang Lee's 李安 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 臥虎藏龍 bamboo fight.
