Hero offers an unexpected twist(纷争)on a traditional tale set during the violent dawn of the Qin Dynasty.China's soon­to­be first emperor is about to conquer(征服)the war­torn land and three of his enemies (played by Maggie Cheung，Tony Leung and Zhang Ziyi)．Love，jealousy，and plenty of martial arts(武打)bring this great story to life. Unlike Ang Lee's Oscar­winning Crouching Tiger，Hidden Dragon(《卧虎藏龙》)，Zhang claime that Hero doesn't carry the theme of revenge(复仇)．The characters are motivated(激发)by their desire to end the war.
