Memoirs of a Geisha
 

Good shit, go watch it. Granted they have Chinese people playing Japanese parts, it's still really good. Beautiful backdrops, great cinematography, the story is good, the acting is good, etc. I haven't read the book in ages, but it stays loyal from what I recall. I'm sure they left a decent amount of stuff out, but nothing that really stuck out.

Plus, the chick who plays Hatsumoto is insanely fucking hot. Seriously though, go watch this movie.

I'll see it since I see everything for free but I'm not really exicted for it, it looks overblown

Honestly, I didn't go in expecting much myself. I was surprised.

I'll wait til video, then probably not rent it.

Hot asian women + a good story? Me like! :y:

He plays the Chairman. So if you've read the book, he plays a pretty big role, although he's not on screen constantly.

This movie is brilliant, as was the book.

I saw it last week and I'd rather watch a 3 hour director's cut of Striptease over seeing it ever again.
