Check out his remake of Ashes of Time as well. Kung Fu Hustle and Infernal Affairs are average but enjoyable, though Scorsese’s remake of Affairs, The Departed, is much better. Departed won the Oscar® for best picture, and Crouching Tiger, directed by Ang Lee (Eat Drink Man Woman, Ice Storm, Brokeback Mountain) was nominated in 2001 but lost to The Gladiator, from director Ridley Scott (Alien, Black Hawk Down).
