I usually don't like older films mostly because I just can't stand the quality and the inferiority of films that are being shown today. However, I will still watch older films/dramas if they are good. Many works would often mention directors, producers, etc. from this film, showing that it is well-known and good. I finally took the jump and decided to watch it.

The story was good and kept me in suspense. The fighting scenes and the cinematography was really good and at times beautiful despite being released in 2004. But also remember it was made in 2004. Overall, I wish I watched it when it came out so I would be able to appreciate it more. If it were made now, I can imagine how great it would be.
