Shadow Trailer - Directed by Zhang Yimou (Hero, House of Flying Daggers)

[wafflebrain]

With SHADOW, director Zhang Yimou (HERO, HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS) once again pushes the boundaries of wuxia action to create a film like no other, masterfully painting a canvas of inky blacks and greys punctuated with bursts of color from the blood of the defeated. In a kingdom ruled by a young and unpredictable king, the military commander has a secret weapon: a "shadow", a look-alike who can fool both his enemies and the King himself. Now he must use this weapon in an intricate plan that will lead his people to victory in a war that the King does not want.

Looks pretty good. Not a fan of his previous films, though, so I can't say I'm hyped.

In!

(Confession time - I thought The Great Wall was decent fun too...)

huh, it's kind of a black and white movie that's not filmed in black and white. They big focus he puts on color is always interesting

Looks interesting enough to give it a watch.

Visually the movie looks incredible and who knew umbrellas were such a good weapon lol

My exact thought. Zhang's use of color is always phenomenal.
