Movie Reviews of Ju Dou

Movie Review: Superb Film--Rotten DVD
Summary: 4 Stars

As the Chinese government wants to supress Yimou's work for it's less than idyllic portrayal of China, they couldn't have a better partner in crime than MagicPlay Entertainment. This is just an awful DVD made from a worn out print by a bunch of slackers on a bad day. Another reviewer has said they have performed a similar hatchet job on "Raise the Red Lantern."
I was lucky enough to see that on cable a few years ago and the photography was incredibly fine--even the credits were beautiful and the color saturation & resolution were amazing.
