Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution"

I really enjoyed Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution". A lot of the reviews said it was overlong, and it probably is, at 155 minutes - but if you're in the mood for something that's slow, dark and beautiful and that that transports you to another world (Hong Kong and Shanghai between 1938 and 1942), then go for it. Not quite as good as Lee's "Brokeback Mountain", but a LOT better than that "Hulk" movie, heheh. Americans should go for the NC-17 version, obviously, those sex scenes ARE pretty hot.
