Warning: This film is not for the hot-blooded, short-tempered or action addicts.Much to my surprise! I have to congratulate the producers and the directors/writers of this movie. It is a quiet film with a slow steady pace. All the actors portrayed their characters really well.If this is the type of films that are coming out of Singapore production companies, I say bring them all out! The only thing I found a bit unexplained would be the relationship between Jason Scott Lee's character and that of Fann Wong's Emi. Are they supposed to be a married couple? Sure feels like it.

Singapore is the setting of this beautiful English-language film with a distinctly European feel and treatment to it. The film, a furious interplay of martial arts and ballroom dancing routines decorating the relatively simple storyline of a love triangle, showcased some very good acting, notably from Jang Hyuk and Fann Wong. I liked it that the film was driven by a core of humanity, viewing the protagonist and his struggles through realist and dreamy lens alternating to indicate the interplay between reality and dreams. The cinematography framed various ambient shots of the Asian city state in a slate of soft pastel colors easy on the eye. The beautiful and talented cast fleshed out a plethora of naturalistic emotions, with Jang Hyuk and Fann Wong particularly outstanding. Jason Scott Lee's presence was noteworthy too. Dance of the Dragon is a film that calls for repeated viewing, to appreciate the timeless quality of universal emotions, to appreciate the classic elegance of a beautifully shot film.

I went to the sneak peaks screening of this film on the weekend at the cathay. I can't believe the Korean scenes were filmed in Singapore. I have been to Korean villages just like the one in the film, very authentic, well done, also the Korean family scenes are exactly the way I experienced it, most Singaporeans may not have seen these villages in Korea, the film is spot on!.. Jang Hyuk in this film gives his best performance to date, very different from the tough rolls in his series. Fann looks beautiful and I cried in two of her scenes. Jason Scott Lee is looking great and his performance is both touching and rewarding. well worth seeing this film!!!!!

Finally a great film comes out of Singapore, I attended the premiere and was blown away. The cinematography is stunning and the performances flawless. I have never seen Fann Wong look so beautiful, and her best performance to date. Jason Scott Lee puts in a great performance great to see him back on the big screen. And the Korean actor Jang Huyk steals the show, what an amazing talent. I am so happy to see a film that is not just another Singapore slap stick comedy, but a film with heart and beauty. My girlfriend cried three times... great work.. a must see. Usually Singapore films are drab and plain, But this film's design is beautiful.
