I assume each episode explores one story in one of the years shown on the trailer. How many episodes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorral Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) Opens Tomorrow. Hidden Blade, Review: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/16/movies/hidden-blade-review.html ‘Hidden Blade’ Review: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes Tony Leung stars as a spy chief during a shadowy period in midcentury China, when nationalists, communists and imperialists vied for power and souls. Quote .... But however crisp and stylishly executed, the parts don’t quite add up to a satisfying whole. The women characters (led by Zhou Xun) are thinly drawn, and Cheng’s love for puzzle-plotting leads too often to confusion, with too little payoff for all that time wandering the darkness. Still, I could have watched the actors smoke (and cry, and bleed) in midcentury Shanghai’s sumptuous back rooms all day.

Werthead Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Whomever came up with the idea of mixing the Tetris theme with "The Final Countdown" is a genius. Normally I'd be scathing of any project that substitutes shitty CGI locations for just going and shooting in the fucking location, but granted that's not possible with Moscow right now.

I thought this was going to be about Simo Hähyä, but I guess he was too badass to be believably rendered on screen. Good title, though. Sisu is such a characteristic Finnish word, a kind of combination of "gutsy" and "grit" but it runs deeper in the Finnish culture.
