Filmů s tématikou historických reálií dálného východu není mnoho. Filmaři obvykle raději sáhnou po něčem pro diváka exkluzivnějším, než je problematická geopolitická situace v Tibetu. Tady však odvaha přinesla ovoce a podařilo se zpracovat snímek, který se zařadil mezi historické klasiky.
Podobné žánry nebývají pro každého, ale zrovna dnešní snímek má skvělé obsazení a i přes svou celkem dlouhou stopáž se nevleče, ale příjemně ubíhá. Takže pokud jste ještě neměli tu čest, dnes večer máte skvělou příležitost zhlédnout kritiky ceněnou klasiku a ještě se trochu edukovat.
