About this product

Product Information

Following up his award-winning martial-arts drama HERO, director Zhang Yimou (JU DOU, RAISE THE RED LANTERN) tells an intricately detailed love story in the swordfighting epic HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS, set during the final days of the Tang Dynasty. A mysterious group called the Flying Daggers is a dangerous threat to the government, so police captain Leo (Andy Lau) sends his right-hand man, Jin (Takeshi Kaneshiro), undercover to try to find the rebels' location. Jin, a notorious playboy, pretends he is a roving warrior called "Wind" and befriends Mei (Ziyi Zhang), a blind dancer who is believed to be the daughter of the former leader of the Daggers. As he leads her across the countryside, they are "attacked" by government soldiers--but these battles are staged by Leo in order to convince Mei that Jin is on her side. But when a general orders that Mei must be captured at any cost, the fighting turns real, and Jin must decide between his loyalty to his job and his growing love for Mei. Meanwhile, Mei battles her feelings for Jin as well, trying to hide her true self. Zhang's gorgeous, compelling film is filled with beautiful singing and dancing, marvelous costumes, and wonderful locations; the scene in the Bamboo Forest is unforgettable, as is the Echo Game, which Leo and Mei play in the Peony Pavilion. There are also twists throughout the film and by the time the end comes, audiences will be spinning their heads in awe and amazement at the neverending wonders of this special movie. The film is dedicated to Anita Mui, who was to have a starring role before her unexpected death.

    Good movie, somehow low quality.

    I bought this movie on DVD and the movie is very good. Ok story, but Ziyi is just so pretty and the main characters have are not shallow. Only down fall is that, somehow this dvd looks terrible on my computer. It looks almost as if it was standard quality and not even DVD quality. It could also be that I have gotten used to 720 and 1080 resolutions. I don't know, but I have since ordered this in Blu ray instead, which I should have done so from the start.

  • beautiful movie with fluffy plot...

    Zhang Yimou is at it again, beautifully choreographing unbelievable fight sequences set in even more unbelievable settings (bamboo forest this time). Zhang Zi Yi also delivers an enrapturing performance as a blind court dancer. The chemistry between her character and the two male leads is also red hot. There are at least two unforgettable scenes that will leave you gasping for air and then asking for more. All the ingredients are there for a great movie. But unlike Yimou's previous martial arts movie, Hero, House of Flying Daggers falls short of its potential. The movie opens with great expectations, setting the stage for a great love triangle between Zhang Ziyi and the two male leads. However, it trips on its own complex plot and ultimately ends abruptly and leaves you ...

  • ZHANG ZIYI AT HER BEST

    I BOUGHT IT 4 TIMES 2 TIMES FROM CHINA (THANKS TO EBAY) AND AT CHINA CITY(A LOCAL OUTLET HERE IN MIAMI)FOR THE DIFFERENT COVERS AND VERSIONS. O.K THE MALE LEADS ARE HANDSOME AND ZIYI ZHANG IS DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. IF THEY JUST WALKED AROUND FOR AND HOUR AND A HALF THEY COULD MAKE A MOVIE. NOW TAKE THESE THREE AND PUT THEM IN A VISUALLY STUNNING, TASTEFUL MARTIAL ARTS, TWISTING PLOT, LOVE AND DECEIT, SECRET SOCIETY, ACTION MOVIE, BEAUTIFULLY WOVEN AMONG THE MOST MAGNIFICANT SCENERY YOU CAN IMAGINE. NOW YOU HAVE HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS. JUST BUY THIS MOVIE. WITHOUT POLISHING THE APPLE, E-BAY IS THE BEST SOURCE FOR THE DIRECT FROM CHINA DVDS. I PREFER THEM BECAUSE OF THE QUALITY, THE COVERS, AND THE PRICE,BE SURE THEY HAVE ENGLISH SUBTITLES. EVEN WITH FREIGHT THEY ARE HALF THE PRICE OF THE ...

  • Stunning!

    Zhang Yimou is the greatest film maker of all time in my book. Kurosawa is neck and neck with Zhang, however. It appears that Zhang has studied Kurosawa yet this is only a small part of the unique style of directing that is only Zhang Yimou. The cast is extraordinary and Zhang Ziyi is tremendously talented as are her male leads. This is a memorable film worth watching over and over.

  • Action that is artistically amazing, with a dose of love story!

    One of the best movies ever produced! There is something for everyone spliced in: the scenery is breathtaking, the action non-stop, doses of fantasy, with a love story thrown in. Simply a timeless movie that will never go out of style = AAA+
