Denna B.

This movie was more a sensory experience than a cerebral one as it contained lots of surround sound and colorful, realistic CGI scenery. While the acting was good, the two main characters were constantly locked in a staring contest to see who could open their eyes wider. The directing, cinematography, sound, special effects, costume and set design were excellent. Even though the director claimed that 80% of the movie was produced with CGI, it was done well enough so as not to be distracting. The only negatives were that the plot wasn't clear until the movie was almost over and the dialogue was written for a younger audience. The audio defaults to Dolby Digital 5.1 and made excellent use of surround sound. As for extras, there's a "Making of The Restless" feature (52:11 min), a "Reincarnation in 49 Days" feature (12:22 min) and a "Production Design" feature (12:22 min). Definitely recommended.

Very good movie. Although it was EngIish subtitles, but it had lots of sword plays and beautiful choreography.
