How to evaluate Zhang Yimou's film Hero?

Hero is an important symbol of director Zhang Yimou's artistic transformation in the face of film globalization and commercialization. Stars gather, the scene is grand, the picture is exquisite, and the martial arts design is freehand, which combines the traditional artistic conception of China with the violent aesthetic modeling of action movies, creating a new round of box office myth and film industrialization model of Chinese mainland movies.

The American "Wall Street Journal" said: "Hero really opened the curtain of China's blockbuster era". At the same time, the grand narrative strategy of Hero between business and art has also aroused fierce debates among intellectuals, the general public, official ideology and film professionals.

Its oriental style, color and artistic conception, aesthetic audio-visual wonders, the combination of China stars, and the creation of multinational and cross-regional production teams such as Du Kefeng, Cheng Xiaodong, Emi Wada and Tan Dun provide a replicable model for China commercial blockbusters.
