Painted Skin

正文内容 begin

《画皮》上映19天冲过两亿国庆档票房历史最高 The other night I tried to go to see 'Connected' but the good seats were sold out, so my friend and I went to see 'Painted Skin' (畫皮). 

I'm not a fan of 'horror' films, but I knew it had an all-star cast -  Donnie Yen, Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei and Sun Li.    I guessed by the fact that Donnie was in it, that it would have at least a bit, if not a healthy dose of martial arts action to keep me entertained between 'horror' scenes. :-P

Actually it turns out its not really a horror movie at all,  its more like a 'supernatural mystery thriller' set in ancient China.    More like an X-files episode, except Mulder and Scully are Donnie and Sun Li. :-P

It keeps you entertained, the action and special effects aren't bad.  The performances are pretty decent too,  especially Zhou Xun (because she's Zhou Xun!)   big end finale drags on a bit too long for my taste... but otherwise pretty solid.

Worth watching on DVD if you can't catch it in the theater.  I give it a 7/10. 

ps - I never saw the 1992 version w/ Sammo and Joey Wang, but I think the story is a bit different.

PS - the poster is not very good, way too generic!
