Ep. 36 – Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (2016)


16 years after the release of the original CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON – an Oscar-winning masterwork and breakthrough for foreign-language films in the US – Michelle Yeoh returned to star in a sequel which was directed by her frequent collaborator Yuen Woo-Ping, co-starred Donnie Yen, and got released straight to Netflix. Did it live up to the first one? Maybe not, but there's a lot to like when you take it on its own terms – it's time to talk about CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON: SWORD OF DESTINY!
