Leave your thoughts about Empire of Silver.
| Shockya.comBrent SimonA beautiful but stolid, screamingly boring period piece with acting so wooden as to invite unfavorable comparison to a collection of popsicle sticks. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThis weirdly engaging tale of banking and bad behavior makes 19th-century China look uncomfortably like 21st-century America. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceHigh production values, gorgeous sets and costumes, excellent lighting and cinematography, plus the spirited playing of Aaron Kwok as the Third Master. |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanThe complicated romance that punctuates the story adds spice (and a twist), but it's a film essentially about the banking family and their machinations at a time of rapid change in China |
| sbs.com.auDon GrovesUnwieldy Chinese melodrama shows money can't buy love. |
| Rincón de cineLaura HirosA story with all the elements of a good "Shakespearean" drama... [Full review in Spanish] |
| NYC Film CriticEthan AlterHandsomely mounted and packed with interesting historical details, Empire of Silver unfortunately falls short on providing emotionally rich drama |
| Washington PostMark JenkinsThe movie is occasionally muddled and always melodramatic, yet it's pictorially compelling, thanks to dramatic locations and exacting art direction. |
| Village VoiceMichael AtkinsonIt's decent, exoticized pulp with a porcelain veneer, and should be consumed idly. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasHas enough going for it to make it likely worth the effort for fans of Asian cinema, but it does seem an opportunity missed. |
