Curse of the Golden Flower


Curse of the Golden Flower: It seems that ever since the success of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon we are good for one of these colorful, stylized martial art films a year. Of the 5 or 6 I have seen like this – Golden Flower is the worst. It really is not much of a “martial arts movie” as it is a “family drama”. It is a very slow developing story of deceit. By the time everything is revealed and the action begins, I could have really cared a less. The story is too heavy on drama – even though the trailers for the film make it look action packed….talk about deception…..
