I would agree that the film is not as bad as the reviews, but it is a very long movie. I think the most interesting part of the film is seeing Shanghai in the 1940s and getting the feel of the times for this period piece.</p><p>There are several "pornographic scenes" which go on for too long. If they were shorten, I think the viewer would still get the sense of how the relationship develops from something that is more sexual to something that is more emotional.</p><p>However, Lust, Caution is definitely not Ang Lee's best work. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Eat, Drink, Man, Woman; Brokeback Mountain, etc.. I think were all better than Lust, Caution.</p><p>Yes, Tang Wei is really cute, but I'll take Zhang Ziyi over her any day :-)</p>JohnWed, 21 Nov 2007 14:09:31 -0000
