a review of 春夏秋冬又一春

This movie left me with mixed feelings. I quite liked the first half, with the calm master and the lessons he teaches the boy. But in the second half the movie gradually loses its flow, and made me lose my interest. This film had the potential to be a timeless, poetic masterpiece, but it didn't succeed to leave that impression on me. Nevertheless, the beautiful scenery alone was worth viewing it.
