Say ‘Good night!’ and Go

While I was staying with my Sis in Kajang, I had the chance to watch ‘The Banquet’ on DVD. This is the one with Zhang Ziyi. It seemed interesting at first, and then the bloodbath started. Blood dripping down horses, blood flowing into the stream…blood spurting from masked dancers.

I won’t tell you anything about the story, here’s the spoiler: EVERYBODY DIES!! The prince dies, the Queen dies, the lady-in-waiting dies after drinking poisoned wine (meant for the King, but he offered it to her without realizing the toxic contents), the King dies, the lady-in-waiting’s father and brother dies, scores of assassins die, dancers die…

To say that it was a depressing movie would be an understatement. XD
