I just finished watching Musa; The warrior and really enjoyed it! Forgive me because I can't for the life of me remember or find who in this massive forum recommended this film. There are some real hotties in this film-Jung Woo Sung is drop - dead gorgeous- I couldn't keep my eyes off him and Ju Jin-mo is great eye-candy too. In all seriousness, the movie is very interesting. It takes place in China in 1375: Korean delegates are sent to China with a message of peace and were charged as spies and exiled to the desert. They stumble across a kidnapped princess ( Ziyi Zhang) and use her in hopes of returning her and making their way home. There is alot (and I mean alot ) of fighting- actually too much fighting in my eyes- but that's probably accurate to that time period. Great acting- the archer Sargent was fantastic too-Ahn Sung-kee.

I think I was the one who mentioned this movie. I mentioned it when I was telling people that Zhang Ziyi is a meanie in this movie. Anyway... awesome movie isn't it? I bought it a long time ago without even knowing anything about it. I was pleasantly surprised at how cool this movie is.

Hi Samanosuke- how are you?
Thanks for such a great recommendation. I did think the movie was cool. Now that you mention it, I do remember your reference to ZZ. (She just seems to naturally be mean and bratty.) And thanks for the pics Sam. Take Care.

Hi guys - I saw this film last night. Tatiana I agree with you about the hot men. Wow! I got it from Netflix so I don't know their names. They were so brave and handsome in their armour or robes. They reminded me of Knights from the middle ages. The Mongol general was also good looking - I recognized him from Iron Monkey and a couple of other films I've seen, maybe The Dragon Inn - anyway I can't be sure of the titles.
Zhang Ziyi was great as the young princess, spoiled, prissy, unsure of what to do, and I think wanting to do the right thing for her people. I was so hoping for a little romantic action between the princess and her two fabulous protectors - but alas it was not to be. The ending was so sad, but was a very good film.

Hi Windysgirl! I'm glad you enjoyed Musa. I was kinda hoping for some romance too; in fact, I was trying to figure out which one she was going to pick.( I had my money on the slave-Jung Woo Sung.) Yes WG, the Mongolian General was quite nice too. All in all, a very entertaining movie!
