lust cautioni fell in love with her, one thing i was disappointed about, i wanted to see what was cut from the film. May 9, 2008
Bad story, poor acting, this movie just sucks!
With much anticipation I watched this movie on DVD and after about 10 minutes became really bored. Anyone who claims they didn't get bored by the first 10 minutes of four ladies playing Mahjong is simply lying, unless he/she is a Mahjong fanatic. The plot never picks up, and I was simply amazed by how bad the actors are. Tony Leung never got into his character, in or out of bed, and he's just incredible as a ruthless traitor, and the young lady, while attractive, simply does not know how to act. May 1, 2008
The best Ang Lee's film ever
An excellent erotic thriller (in Alfred Hitchcock's psychological way) which takes place in Shanghai during the Japanese occupation (around the 1940s); that is, by far, a lot much better Ang Lee's film than his famous "Brokeback Mountain".
This movie should have not only been nominated for the 2007 foreign film Academy Award, but it should have undoubtedly won it.
It's one of the best pictures (together with Paul Thomas Anderson's "There will be blood"; and Sidney Lumet's "Before the devil knows you're dead") that I've been able to see during the last months.

Pure at Heart
Lust, Caution portrays the journey of a young impressionable girl who -- in the end -- chooses to follow her heart rather than her mind. By not betraying her soul, she accepts only one other possible outcome, an outcome made more tragic by previously unknown circumstances. The DVD is presented in either French or Mandarin audio, with English subtitles available. April 27, 2008
