How is Hero an Art Movie?


  1. One way that the movie Hero is an art movie is because it does not have a straight forward beginning, middle and end. It is full of flashbacks and at times it could be hard to tell what was a flashback and what wasn't. Another reason this was an art movie is because it was based on the Qin Emperors dream of uniting all of the dynasties. 
  2. The director makes this movie for everybody by including martial arts in it. Another way he does this is by making the characters in the film able to connect with some people.
  3. I didn't like this movie because I would have preferred that it was in English. Another reason was that the "flying" ruined the fight scenes. Furthermore it seemed too repetitive with it going back and showing the different re-tells of how he killed the assassins.
  4. Zhang Yimou used colour to emphasize the fight in the Golden Forest when Broken Sword's assistant, Moon, died the leaves all changed from a golden yellow to a blood red.
