The Promise

Chinese writer and director Chen Kaige made his worst film with this love story. A tale of mistaken identity that leads to a love triangle had the elements for a great film that gets lost in its over the top production. Kaige and his award winning team are more eager to top their previous epics with more visual splendor than ever before thanks to CGI that it literally buries the story and its characters. Kaige should have known better that less is more. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
