It was, in one word, epic. Not perfect, but certainly epic... as the most expensive movie in Chinese history ($80 million), the effort was certainly there.
I couldn't help but feel some scenes were lost in translation, however. For instance, there was a live breech birth that sent the guy sitting in front of me nearly out of his seat with laughter. Strange. Personally, I could only grimace, as the scene reminded me a bit too much of the video "Miracle of Life," which I watched in 6th-hour freshman honors biology with Dr. Hampton. Live human birth. Miracle my ass.
