Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon — Named "Best Picture of the Year" by over 100 critics nationwide! Two master warriors (Chow Yun Fat and Michelle Yeoh) are faced with their greatest challenge when the treasured Green Destiny... more » sword is stolen. A young aristocrat (Zhang Ziyi) prepares for an arranged marriage, but soon reveals her superior fighting talents and her deeply romantic past. As each warrior battles for justice, they come face to face with their worst enemy - and the inescapable, enduring power of love. Set against 19th-century China's breathtaking landscape, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the action-packed, box office smash from acclaimed director Ang Lee (Sense and Sensibility, The Ice Storm) featuring stunning martial arts choreography by Yuen Wo Ping (The Matrix).

Curse of the Golden Flower

From the director of Hero and House of Flying Daggers comes the martial arts epic masterpiece whose savage beauty and exquisite elegance has mesmerized and captivated audiences around the world. Set in the lavish and breathtakingly colorful world hidden from the eyes of mere mortals behind the walls of the Forbidden City, a tale of a royal family divided against itself builds to a mythic climax as lines are crossed, trust is betrayed, and family blood is spilled in the quest for redemption and revenge. Starring Chow Yun Fat of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon as the embattled Emperor and Gong Li of Memoirs of a Geisha as his poisoned Empress, Curse of the Golden Flower grants you entry into a dazzling and spectacular world of betrayal, vengeance and passion that will change the way you think of martial arts forever.

House of Flying Daggers

"Prepare your eyes for popping," in this "martial-arts fireball that throws in a lyrical love story, head spinning fights and dazzling surprises" (Rolling Stone). "A gorgeous entertainment" (A.O. Scott, New York Times). Mei is an exotic, beautiful blind dancer, associated with a dangerous revolutionary gang, known as the House of Flying Daggers. Captured by officers of the decadent Tang Dynasty, Mei finds herself both threatened - and attracted - to the most unusual circumstances. Here, her heart and loyalties battle each other, amid warriors in the treetops and dazzling combat - the likes of which have never before been seen!

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - One of the BEST flying kung fu movies with a great plotline. The subtitles were pretty annoying but it works with the story. Many movies have an audio English turn on feature. A must for Ang Lee, Chow Yun-Fat and Michelle Yeoh fans!

The Warrior - Good fight scenes, costumes and sets!

House of Flying Daggers - The sequel did not live up to the original!

Good movies, questionable bundle

pither | Iowa City, Iowa USA | 07/14/2009

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I own all three of these titles, including Curse on BluRay. I like all three, though Flying Daggers a bit less than the other two. I'm not keen on a bundle-only option, but both Curse and Flying Daggers are available (from Amazon) on BluRay (both for about 1/3 the price of the bundle. Crouching Tiger still isn't out on BluRay, so I can see some irritation if you only want that movie. That said, the bundle is a good deal if you liked Crouching Tiger and might like other movies in the same genre. My concern is whether the BR of Flying Daggers or (when it comes out) Crouching Tiger has more special features than the regular DVDs did. The special features on the Curse BR are pretty thin."

Unnecessary or Overpriced

Jacob A. Del Rio | 07/16/2009

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This is the only way to buy Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on Blu-Ray in the U.S. The two other movies have been on Blu-Ray for over a year. Anyone interested in these movies probably already has those two. This set could be acceptable at half the price, or if Curse of the Golden Flower or House of Flying Daggers were new special edition releases. But at this price point, we're paying full price for these older discs."

Un poco de decepción

"Me animé a comprar esta edición triple de películas chinas contemporáneas porque la publicidad en Amazon decía que venían subtitulados en español. Especialmente Crouching Tiger. Para mi sorpresa, el dvd no viene con subtítulos en español, a pesar que en la propia caja del disco dice que sí. A esto se le llama, "publicidad engañosa" y es lamentable.

I encouraged her to buy this edition triple of contemporary Chinese films because the publicity that came from Amazon said Spanish subtitles. Especially Crouching Tiger. To my surprise the dvd does not come with subtitles in Spanish, although in-house disc box says yes. This is called "misleading" and is regrettable."
