Seven Swords
Has anyone else seen this movie? Having caught it last night I must say I want my three hours and £5 back. I didn't have a problem with the cantonese/mandarin voices or subtitles. What I did have a problem with was the bland and clumsy dialogue, unintroduced, unexplored , samey characters, and the monotonous soundtrack.
I got the feeling the dialogue was largely lost in translation; it was emotionless and very dull. With a few exceptions, the actors didn't really seem to put any genuine energy into their roles. Of the seven swords, only a couple are really seen in action despite their introduction to the audience. Many parts also made absolutely no sense or weren't explained.
You know what? I wanted to write more on this film but reading what i've put so far as depressed me enough to slap a bow on this post and call it finished.
Waste of money, terrible film.
