Reviews
Rolling Stone - Gong Li bites into her role like a juicy apple. The great Chow Yun Fat is her match as the emperor..., Variety - Truly arresting, Empire - Shimmering martial artistry, Time Out - Sumptuous period detail... Bravura [action] sequences, The Guardian - Sensational to look at, with some stunning set-pieces... Delectable, The Observer - Spectacular, Entertainment Weekly - There is ominous buildup in this lavish, dripping-in-gold drama from Zhang Yimou, Total Film - Overflowing with sumptuous visuals, chop-socky mayhem and the finest CG battle since THE RETURN OF THE KING, it's a lavish, lurid, eye-saucering spectacular..., BBC - Graceful brutality on a hugely rewarding scale

Additional Information
In 2004, Zhang Yimou caused a sensation with his astonishing HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS, and his CURSE OF THE GOLDEN FLOWER is yet another dazzling, visually stunning film. Calling again upon the talents of the striking Gong Li, Yimou tells an epic tale of lust and power set in the opulent world of the Later Tang dynasty. The plot follows the story of the Emperor (Chow Yun Fat) and his Empress (Li) and the tragic disintegration of their royal family--whose problems go far beyond the merely dysfunctional. For starters, the ailing Empress has long been having an affair with her stepson, the Crown Prince Wan (Liu Ye). Unbeknownst to her, Wan has been dallying with the Imperial Doctor's daughter (Li Man), and has plans to escape the palace with her. Meanwhile, the Emperor himself has just returned from a long trip, and while relations with his wife are obviously icy, it becomes clear that his plans for her are far more ominous than she could ever imagine. Everyone involved has a secret plan for either escape or domination, resulting in an explosive ending wherein the darkest family secrets are revealed and horrifically bloody battles are waged both inside and outside the walls of the sparkling, gold-encrusted palace. Yimou appears to be trying to balance his flair for telling an emotional story with his talent for thrilling, detail-driven action sequences, and while CURSE's plot does at times seem close to that of a soap opera, the phenomenal performances and breathtaking visuals are more than enough to power the film forward. Fans of Yimou's quieter work (RIDING ALONG FOR THOUSANDS OF MILES) are likely to enjoy the dramatic exploration of family relationships, while there are still plenty of hissing ninjas to satisfy DAGGERS enthusiasts.

    What a Great film, Full of action, which you would expect from CHOW YUN FAT, but this film is also full of Beauty, culture and intregue.

However, the Emperor is poisoning his second wife and she knows it, but whilst the Emperor is away , the Emperess will play , with the eldest son, Her stepson , whilst also plotting a coup to over throw the Emperor. But , Stepson is in love with the girl in the village, daughter to the Emperors first wife, ( his own mum, whom he beleives to be dead). This just adds to the plot and reason.
