I loved this movie so much, I`ve read the book twice now, I read it during the week before release to refresh my memory. It bugged me how things were out of order and the little things that changed but all and all. I really did love it, it was gorgeous, the kimono`s were gorgeous. I figure if I hadn`t read the book I`d be grovelling at the movie crew`s feet right about now. I`ve been waiting for this all year I even was willing to drive to another city just to see it.
Excellent!
i think that it was alright,could have had better cast.And it took to long for the real movie to start!
the movie was a bit of a dissapointment but not because chines actors were used; rather because, in my opinion, the book was not accurately portrayed. They didnt show why the father made the choice of selling his daughters or the life of poverty they led. They didnt mention the artist that drew the portrait of sayuri. As well, nobu was very honourable in the novel and the movie did not accurately display this. They did not mention sayuri`s danna at all (the general) and nobu only had one arm! Did the director or anyone on production of the movie actually read the book?
The book is a must read, and you will appreciate the movie a lot more after reading it. However the movie is amazing
Beautiful film!! one of the years best!! if you`re looking for action don`t go but if you`re looking for a story with purpose and passion and characters that bleed of the screen then fricken go!! What are you waiting for?...why are you on your computer day and night reading tribute.ca?...go do something!!
GREAT CAST! GREAT STORYLINE! GREAT MOVIE! ENJOYED VERY MUCH! I DON`T CARE IF THEY ARE CHINESE OR JAPANESE, TO ME I ENJOYED AND MY MOMEY PAID OFF! THAT`S ENOUGH! WILL RECOMMAND EVERYONE TO SEE IT !
THEY`RE ACTORS and ACTRESSES. IT`S THEIR JOB TO PORTRAY SOMETHING THEY`RE NOT. so just criticize the movie and the acting, not the ethnicity of the actors. that should be irrelevant.
I thought it was really good. but too long
ACTUALY IF YOU CHECK THE JAPANESE BOX OFFICE ZHANG ZIYI CAN AND DOES GROSS MORE MONEY THNE A JAPANESE ACTRESS CUZ SHE IS SO POPULAR THERE, I KNOW WHEN I LIVED THERE SHE WAS HUGE, THEY DONT CARE THAT THE LADIES ARE CHINESE THE JUST WANT TO ENJOY THE MOVIE TOO.
