Yeah I know people think all of these Chinese movies are the same but Crouching Tiger is really in a class of it's own. Awesome action, great score, great acting, good story. The martial arts in this movie are beyond compare, though unrealistic, the visuals look so good you almost believe it. You also realize just how good these Chinese actors are in their own element because they can seem a bit cheesy sometimes in English films, probably due to the language barrier.
