Watched this movie twice already and Oh! What a wonderful cinema it is! Definitely a good turn in Chinese Cinema!
Obviously Tony Leung's acting was superb, and Wang Yi Bo did exceptionally well too. I think he did a really good job (especially the way he clench his jaw !) at protraying different emotions, and even though some scenes the acting was a bit awkward, the director also made a good job to "hide" it. Huang Lei and Zhou Xun were also great. The cinematography was also beautiful. Most of the scenes were really pretty and consisted of shades of yellow and blue, while some scenes were only composed of green. I also really liked that some scenes were like a mirror of each other, and the flash backs throughout the movie.
