I love John Woo and Tony Leung. I also loved reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms--the movie is based on one of the battles in the novel--and, there are lots of those.
My only gripe about this ins Tony Leung's and Takeshi Kaneshiro's roles should have been reversed. I thought Tony Leung was much more fitting to play the role Zhuge Liang, which was initially offered to him.
Anyway, I watched the first movie in English subtitle. I was impressed. John Woo delivered and then some. Reviews of the second movie say it's even better. I'll watch it when I have time.
