I saw it two nites ago, and was not too impressed. Felt forced and staged. I think the 'formula' has worn thin. Crouching Tiger.., Hero, Spring, summer fall and spring, etc got there first and were fresh and innovative. Its kind of like the slasher horror movies, where Nightmare on Elm street sort of set the trend to be followered by a whole series of 'me-too'.
House of Flying Daggers didn't even approach the fighting sequences of Hero or CTHD, even the story was shallow and juvenile.
My 2cents.
