Fabulous Scenery, Uncomfortable Plot

Lust, Caution was made by Ang Lee for a Taiwanese company, released in Taiwan and I believe for the Asian market. This film is really beautiful. It's set in Shanghai and Hong Kong during the Japanese Occupation of China in World War II. The scenery and costuming is so interesting, which was lucky because the story left me wanting. There are some pretty graphic, and fairly violent sex scenes in... read more

This is one of the best chinese I have ever seen. It is unbelievably good.
The plot is good. The settings are nice.
But the actors... they are so good.
Tony Leung and Tang Wei really takes our breath away.
For the many thousands who believe Chinese movies are all about martial arts this can be a great antidote.
Don't miss this movie for anything.

"16.12. Onnistun näköjään katsomaan Ang Leeltä vain ne hyvät elokuvat (ja Hulkin), sillä en vieläkään keksi miehestä mitään erityistä valittamista, vaikka hänen haukkumisensa pitäisi olla nyt in, ja minä vain seuraan uusimpia trendejä. Lust, Caution on erinomainen kertomus nuoresta teatteriporukasta, joka päättää ruveta murhaamaan japanilaisia mielisteleviä isoherroja toisen maailmansodan aikaisessa Shanghaissa. "Oikean" Tony Leungin esittämä pamppu valitaan suurimmaksi"

“An amazing piece of cinema from director Ang Lee, absolutely beautiful cinematography. How the crew managed to find enough of old Shanghai to film in is a mystery to me, but they created an amazingly convincing portrayal of the period. Add the sets and locations to the beautiful photography, the incredible "mise en scene", and the wonderful performances, and you end of with a beautiful and affecting film. I can't recommend it highly enough. If you love cinema, then you have to see this film.” read more

"Mukava yllätys Ang Leeltä, ohjaajalta jonka tuotannosta en varsinaisesti innostunut yleensä ole. Elokuva alkaa jokseenkin hitaasti, mutta loppua kohden leffa saa kummasti virtaa ja tiivistunnelmaisuutta. Ang Leen leffaksi tämä on myöskin yllätävän väkivaltainen ja seksuaalisuus hyvinkin peittelemätöntä, mikä sekin on plussa ottaen huomioon ohjaajan tyypillisen hieman valjulta tuntuvan kerrontatyylin. Mitään kovin syvällistä vastarintaliikkeen toiminnan analysointia tässä ei k"
