Azok a harcosok, akik a Vudan-hegy szerzeteseitől tanulják a fegyverforgatás fortélyait, szinte legyőzhetetlenek: csodás képességeiket messze földön féltik és tisztelik. Ám Li hátat szeretne fordítani az örök harcnak, és elajándékozza híres kardját, a Zöld Végzetet. A kardot azonban elrabolják, és Li úgy érzi, az ő feladata, hogy ne engedje illetéktelen kezekbe jutni a legendás fegyvert. Társnője, a testőr Shu Lien kíséretében indul a rabló nyomába, aki - legnagyobb meglepetésükre - méltó ellenfele a Vudan-hegy neveltjeinek. És még nagyobb meglepetésükre: nő. A különös sorsú lány becsapja mindkettőjüket: tanítványukul szegődik, majd újra kereket old; egyikük sem tudja, barátjuk vagy ellenségük-e. Li azonban nemcsak azt képtelen eldönteni, ki a halálos ellensége. Azt sem tudja, melyiküket, ellenségét vagy szövetségesét választaná, ha végre tényleg felhagyhatna a katonáskodással. (InterCom)

Incredible fight scenes, fantastic performances, an impressive story, and a touching ending. However, upon further viewings, the first half becomes excessively drawn out, the dialogue lacks the same power, and the long-awaited action seems like it takes forever to get there. But all the more surprising is the realization that the second half, where it transition almost into a ballet, is even more impressive the second time around, and the ending becomes fatally charged with a stronger sense of fate. For me, though, the highlight will forever be the memory of the ambush in the desert and the subsequent honest romance. This is one of those films that everyone should see.

"Nincs növekedés segítség nélkül, nincs cselekvés válasz nélkül, és nincs vágy korlátozás nélkül. A világ tele van tigrisekkel és sárkányokkal." Az első megtekintés akklimatizálódás volt, tele csodálkozással és enyhe bizonytalansággal. A második azoknak a szabályoknak az elfogadása volt, amelyeken az eddig nem látott filmvilág állt. A harmadiktól az ötödikig pedig a leglelkibb és legmeghatóbb érzelmi élmény volt, amit valaha is átéltem a mozivászon előtt. De a Tigris és sárkány című film inkább egy epikus filmes költemény, amelyet újra és újra meg tudok nézni, és amely, akárcsak egy jó filmzene, soha nem veszít semmit a hatásából. Ang Lee megragadta a beteljesületlen szerelem, az árulás és a felelősség témáit, és egy társadalmilag semleges, spirituálisan tiszta környezetbe helyezte, ahol korábban nem látott dimenziókat tudott adni nekik. Az "Elpazaroltam az egész életemet..." jelenet örökre visszhangozni fog bennem.

Starting with the flashback to the desert ambush (about halfway through) it’s absolute cinematic perfection and mental cleansing in one. Unfortunately, this film suffers from a lackluster to sluggish start, which is why it's only 4* overall. And it looks amazing on Blue-Ray!!

Unlike Hero, this film seems to me to be too tributary to the concept of a large film and really quirky, and it is pensive only during the ending, which is riveting both in terms of combat and drama. Until then, however, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon seemed to me to be an unnecessarily blurred love epic with a slightly unfortunate distribution of retrospectives that unnecessarily breaks the main storyline. It's interesting, but it still resonates most strongly in Lee's conception in the bang of the sword and in a riveting and beautiful catharsis. During the film, there are light indications of force, but they shatter somewhat in the cacophony of voices, in directing played for certainty and in the visual stylization that is no way exceptional. Perhaps it's the "American money" and the "audience focus" that are to blame. At the same time, the theme so typically Asian, the theme of struggle, life and journey, offers a lot of stimuli for film meditation... But Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is just a good action movie, has great examples of Shaolin fights with swords, spears, and who knows what else... However, it speaks to the higher level of the spirit only a few times, but all the more impressively.

It may be a classic, but it didn't grab me by the heart or balls. Unfortunately, it took my five days to watch this film because I fell asleep four times, which doesn't bode well. Moreover, I wholeheartedly hate when someone flies on trees or rooftops, I follow the rule of no gravity-no fun and here it irritated me a lot. The choreography is top-notch, the final female fight is definitely the best thing in the film, but as soon as someone flies to a roof after a fight, the great impression is instantly spoiled and everything is more ridiculous than spectacular. 60%

Love, revenge, and martial arts underscored by beautiful clean music. I am always stronger and softer at the same time after watching it. One of my favorite movies from Asia... a legend, 5 stars.

A technically captivating and visually impressive romance that for me lacks the right attributes. The Asian setting and strongly non-standard elements are, admittedly, stunning in their unusualness, but on the other hand, they sometimes appear overly poetic in an effort to show the direction that applause and Oscars should take. An exceptional work, but certainly not among the elite company of the best.

I don't quite know what to make of this movie. It’s evident that the Chinese, not only in their films but also in their overall lifestyle, care a lot about their history and traditions, so different and separate from everyone else’s. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a wonderfully refined spectacle, in which that particular historical flavour is perfectly reflected, and together with a great cast, a beautiful setting and an engaging soundtrack, we are presented with an absolutely hypnotic saga into the souls of determined and wise warriors, the impact of which, despite some reservations, I cannot deny. And as for the reservations, it was the rather slower orientation towards the sublime and for me quite unusual Asian style that prevents me from giving it a full rating. But I will gladly watch it again and who knows what will happen then, but at the moment the 80% seems a perfectly appropriate and deserved number...

It's an incredibly beautiful film, but you'll only like it if you accept its unrealistic game and don't make a big deal out of the fact that the characters fly. But that's the beauty of this artistic action ballet, which also has wonderful characters and a very strong story, and it's not just action or art for its own sake.
