I've been wanting to see this flick for a while now, and finally got around to it this evening. If you haven't seen it, it's a pretty cool flick. The scenery is just beautiful, the period costumes look cool, the music is good, and the acting is pretty well done (if a smidge over the top at times). You are best disposed to check your disbelief at the door, however. Not just because it is a fantasy, but because this film, set in the mid-1700's in France, has kung-fu action sequences. And the main kung-fu specialist is an American Indian. Just accept that going in, and you'll have a good time. :-)
