Seconded. Boy did I like that movie! What Oliver says is spot on: we get to see the Movement Affinity used a lot and especially the Leap over Water and Run on Treetops feats. And the story is so romantic and moving besides being also funny and action-packed. It's also great to see a movie without any caucasians. Must see.
