I saw this back in 2002. It was masterfully shot. Didn't make much sense after my initial viewing but I would probably have to see it a couple more times and unfortunately was never able to.....until now. "The Warrior" is kind of a punk though, he made me mad on more than a few occasions but it all comes together when it's all said and done.
How come it's barely getting released in the us now?
I heard for a few years that Miramax was supposed to release it, but apparently it is only being released now. I guess Anthony Minghella convinced them not to sit on it.
so who's winning this century: indian, korean, or latin american cinema?
korean
