Rating: 2.5/4 --
Daoming just manages to keep the material from turning into a sentimental variation on "Waiting for Godot."

Rating: 2.5/5 --
Though Yimou somehow manages to tie this barren package up into a final moment of poetic melancholy, one can't help but feel it's a far cry from the incredibly moving heights of past works.

This movie took me by surprise because of the simplicity of its story, that it's also very profound and full of details. [Full review in Spanish]

Yet another example of how Zhang Yimou is one of the best filmmakers working right now.

Battleship Pretension
Heartbreaking in its depiction of ordinary lives affected by political upheaval, this ode to the fundamental values that survive even under such dire circumstances has an epic gravity that recalls another great historical romance, Doctor Zhivago.

It may be too restrained for audiences who enjoy a three-hankie weepie, though the emotions it evokes it earns.
