Individually or collectively, I'll take a pass on it. It's good, but not great. The wuxia/chambara films I've seen the in the past are easily better than any of these two Volumes.... Most people who haven't seen that many good wuxia/chambara films may think the swordplay is good, but it's only fair to good, IMO....

I agree..the swordplay is good but wasn't that great.

are u talking about the hero that was out 2 yrs. ago in HK? cuz i have that one on dvd.. does that mean its new in the US? eeh thats pretty old
I downloaded Hero from suprnova the other day..it was really quick to like 45minutes to get it..I think after people saw the preview it was in high demand..its an OGM file though..is there a way to conver it to avi or mpeg?
an OGM file is actually an avi file... i m not too sure of the technical jargons but if u wan u could just rename the file extension from .ogm to .avi and there u have it an avi file... but if u plan to burn it on to a vcd then i m not too sure if it would work or not...

I believe this is incorrect. OGM and AVI are both container formats, but they are different kinds of containers. They are similar because they can contain video, audio and subtitle streams.
You can rename .ogm to .avi, but that does not make it an avi. If you get tools to work with OGM and AVI containers, you can actually convert from one to the other. OGM can also be kind of a supercontainer because it can contain AVI files. I don't know if the opposite works.
Now, you may be able to fool some recalcitrant software into working by changing the extension, but that is probably not the correct way to do it. You should probably get the software that understands OGM containers.
Lemme ask ya'll's this . . . and, keep in mind, I liked the film. Really did, I'll probably end up buying the DVD as well. Lemme ask . . . you guys didn't have a single problem with The Last Samurai?
Hehe yes that is more technically acurate but i was guessing that IkematsuSosuke just wanted to be able to view the file so i was too lazy to explain the whole thing hehe... my bad there... anyways there u are the more acurate definition... and if u r interested in finding out more about codecs and filetypes u could check them out \\HERE\\

Not me.
Most people were trippin' out on the "historical inaccuracies" of the film and Tom Cruise as the main character... As I've said in the past, if you go to a movie with the 'tude that you won't like it, guess what?? You won't like it... Amazing!

Yeah. I agree, I agree. Some folks need to understand poetic license, I suppose. You know the ABSOTIVE WORST complaint I've heard about the film? That the armor is outdated! Uh . . . didn't Katsunori, Algren and crew represent THE "last of the samurai" (HEY, akin to the title of the film!) and so that would mean that they'd have access to armor old and new. Gasp. It's certainly not likely; but at least it's possible.
Just got home from the cinema. a 10 euro poorer now, hehe. Well, what can I say about the movie. It's less bloody and more drama, a total different approach if you look at the previous installment. My friends were wooing all over the movie, I was rather neutral, neither bad nor good, hehe. Actually I missed all the action scenes from the previous movie.

Hey hey! My sentiments exactly. The commercials led me to believe that there was much more action than what actually took place...

I try not to let my expectations up too much because I hate to be disappointed. So for this movie, my expectations aren't too high. "So-so" rather. We'll see when I get it! _________________
