An Empress and the Warriors, a historical epic/romance that was really two films. There's this military drama/tragedy starring Donnie Yen, and then there's a cheesy romance between the heroine (a Mulan by any other name) and her warrior saint/engineer/forest ranger/medical doctor/balloon rider/peacenik boyfriend. The former clearly stole the show and had some pretty wonderful sequences, while the latter made me laugh out loud in all the wrong places. Reminded me of White Tiger, and not in a good way. Of course, it all looked gorgeous whichever part we were in. 7 years ago
