Just finished the 2 hour and 20 minute Frozen Flower, a somewhat overheated piece of Korean palace intrigue. Lots of people being heartbroken while wearing beautiful clothes in beautiful sets. Shadowless Sword had better martial arts, tho.
Each time I watch a movie from somewhere in Asia that seems to have had trouble getting to the end of its denouement (Akira, Gantz II, Natural City, Returner IIRC, etc), I vaguely wonder if this is some sort of Asian thing... and then I remember Meet Joe Black.
Further evidence - if any is needed - of how far I am from an expert on things Asian: it took me 20 minutes to realise I was watching the movie in Thai.
