Where there is trouble, there is a solution. This time, the trouble comes from two mythical spirits who take the forms of humans. Disguised in human skin and clothes, the pair continue to take the hearts of humans to stay alive and young. But one of them strays down the wrong path and falls in love with a married man. What will happen to the lives of this man and his wife after saving from the barbarians someone who didn't need any saving?
An action-thriller centered on a vampire-like woman who eats the skins and hearts of her lovers.
If your ideal fantasy genre contains unrelenting action and adventure, Painted Skin may not be the title for you. But, if you&#39;re looking for a beautiful dramatic romance, that is as poetic as it is entertaining, you will not be disappointed.<br/><br/>Written in an intelligently mature fashion, and performed with emotional poignancy, Painted Skin is quite unlike its American contrasts, with stories of battlers fought for love occasionally becoming lost in bloody violence and nudity. This Chinese feature delivers a tasteful approach, that sacrifices in your face thrills and excitement, for a gripping character driven tale of unrequited romance.<br/><br/>General Sheng returns home with his army after defeating barbarians infringing on his borders, bringing a beautiful young woman he rescued with him. His wife is immediately suspicious of the young woman, and becomes more so when her former paramour, Yong, a soldier turned nomad, returns to the city at the same time as gorgeous demon hunter, Xia, both firmly believing the woman is not who she claims.<br/><br/>There is, without a doubt, more to the mysterious woman, Xiao, than meets the eye, though any accusations are rendered preposterous in the eyes of those who appreciate her. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, Yong and Xia begin investigating, only to find themselves in the middle of a battle, plagued by conspiracy, jealously, betrayal and lust.<br/><br/>Although there are a number of astounding action sequences, Painted Skin is more of a cat and mouse thriller, with many of the fights taking place in conversations, where one character is always trying to outwit the other. At its heart, the film reveals that no sacrifice is too great when you love someone, both the script and the actors capturing the emotion perfectly, from the beauty of romance, to the grueling pain of loss.<br/><br/>Unlike in other films, where demons are purely villainous antagonists, Painted Skin makes demons and humans alike sympathetic characters, with breakable hearts, and many a vulnerability, the seductive storyline between man and demon being similar to the fourth Hellraiser. With this in mind, though a sex scene is apparent, nothing is ever seen, the tasteful directional style presenting the audience with all of the passion, but not at the expense of the actor&#39;s privacy.<br/><br/>With outstanding special effects that draw you further into the plot, alongside a soundtrack that mirrors the turmoil and romance exhibited in the film, Painted Skin is a perfect fantasy that you do not want to miss.
despite the star-studded cast, and the elaborate costumes, special effects, and big budget, this movie sinks like titanic. zhou xun is not beautiful enough to convince me that she is a fox spirit. they should cast someone as beautiful (or at least sexy) like gong Li. furthermore, zhou xun&#39;s infamous tough voice is not in the least alluring. Vicki zhao acts as the stupid wife of a stupid man. they dying for each other is so lame. if they truly love each other, he will believe her when she say zhou xun is a demon, won&#39;t he? this movie makes no sense whatsoever. besides lamenting the absurdity, i absolutely have no feelings toward any character. Wang sheng is your typical good-looking hormonal guy who fall in love with the pretty girl, idiotic as ever. Donnie yen is ugly, but at least he has sense. qi yu Wu is funny, but i don&#39;t see any special effects. can&#39;t he use his tongue to kill, like toad from x-men? why must he fight using swords like normal people? he is also redundant, as i don&#39;t think the original tale includes him. why would he wanna follow zhou xun, if there are many demons around? Betty sun can&#39;t fight. AT ALL. it is a marvel she can even stab anything without taking out her own finger. she is a joke to martial arts. she only managed to kill qi yu Wu by accident. (like he fell on top of her sword). all in all, this shows how Chinese literature has deteriorated today. since Jackie Chan&#39;s &#39;kongfu&#39; and exploits of Chinese &#39;legends&#39; by Hollywood, this is another hollow, empty, eye bubblegum that will lose flavor in ten seconds.

The Director&#39;s cut expands on some plot elements, but does not add anything new to the film. The most obvious difference is the shifting of the first two conversations between the demons. In the Director&#39;s cut, those occur a little earlier. Besides this most of the changes are minor ones, like short scene extensions. 7cb1d79195
