The Lord of Ten Thousand Years Is Reduced To Citizen Gardener

Date of Review:  Oct 1, 2004
The Bottom Line: I'm in an Asian frame of mind!
Review: The 1987 movie, The Last Emperor, directed by Bernardo Bertolucci, contains the moving history of Pu Yi. It tells of his life and brief reign in the Forbidden City where he was the object of worship by half a million people. It won Oscars for Best...

Bertolucci's Rise & Fall of a Blind Emperor Turned to Mediocrity

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: Bernardo Bertolucci's The Last Emperor is a Grand, Enchanting Masterpiece with Great Technical Work & a Superb Cast.
Review: ***Note: The following is a review of the Director's Cut version of The Last Emperor***

After the 1976 epic film 1900, despite some acclaim, Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci was being hailed as a great, artistic director but one who...

Too Much Too Soon!

Date of Review:  Dec 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: This film earned an Academy Award for "Best Film" and "Best Director." Though relatively weak by such lofty standards, it is a very good film.
Review: When you're born on top, there's no place to go but down. The story of Pu Yi, told in The Last Emperor, reminds me a bit of the fate of child prot g s or actors who wow the public when they're still children or adolescents. When that much success...

Requires reflection, a quiet film

Date of Review:  Jul 7, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you are a patient viewer and like historical dramas, this is a good one.
Review: This film tells the story of Pu Yi, the last Emperor of China. It is a long, quiet, detailed film, that focuses on how Pu Yi was molded to completely not fit in with the times and the needs of China. He is a virtual bank-vault of contradictions...

The Last Emperor

Date of Review:  Aug 9, 2002
The Bottom Line: The Last Emperor IS NOT a good movie, I would NOT recommend it to anyone I know. You should read the reviews and make your own decision.
Review: The Last Emperor Director?s Cut
218 Minutes
Rated NR
1987
Artisan

The Last Emperor is an extremely difficult movie to follow. One minute you are seeing the child growing and another you see the man in prison.

History Goes "Zzzzzzz:" An Extra Hour Of "The Last Emperor" Makes For A Real Snoozer!

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2009
The Bottom Line:

Slow and well-filmed, The Last Emperor is a cinematic marvel with characters it is hard to care about.

Review: A number of significant people in my life - and my partner's life - are Chinophiles, lovers of Chinese art, culture and history. Both my father and mother and my partner's mother have made trips to China within the least five years. In fact, my...

The Chinese walls come tumbling down...

Date of Review:  Dec 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: China's wild ride through 20th century. A souless man incarnating the fate of a nation in late Modernity. What about women? Whose "China" is this, by the way?
Review: BERNARDO BERTOLUCCI's Last Emperor is a revelatory narrative on the bumpy road of China during the 20th century - from decadent empire to Japanese colony, then Communist state following the liberation and a bloody civil war. When USSR ceased to be...

Last Emperor is a First Rate Film

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a very, very good movie which should be seen. It is a Best Picture Winner with very good visuals and very good performances.
Review: The Last Emperor

The winner of nine academy awards including best picture (1987), this is a huge beautiful colorful production filmed on location that shows the last gasp of China's royal family before the boxer rebellion and communist...

Top Movie, An Immediate Classic

Date of Review:  Apr 27, 2000
Review: The Last Emperor deals with the human element of power. The focus on the main character is so total that the backdrop of historical developments, some of the more significant in the 20th century, fail to drown out the theme of the movie. The...

Excellent

Date of Review:  Nov 21, 2000
Review: This movie was excellent. It is a bit slow, but worth every minute. The historical context is amazingly well done, if slightly inaccurate. The cinematography is awesome. In fact, it won many Academy Awards (back when Academy Awards meant something),...
