    What a natural beauty! She is a great addition to the Chinese/American film industries. Born in China, she has been in some great films such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, Lovers and Rush Hour 2. hide show

    A good actress and her beauty is a natural asset to the roles that she has been cast in. One of the hottest actresses anywhere in the world - defintely deserves more Hollywood films, if she wants them!

    Mostly the roles I have seen her in have been a combination of a damsel in distress and a kick-ass man-eater...haha...
    I think her best acting performance was probably Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - but she looked great in Rush Hour 2!


    It would be nice to see her land some more serious dramatic types of roles. I think she has leading lady material written all over her. Hopefully someone else agrees and gives her the opportunity she deserves!

    One of the better actresses ... hide show

    Ziyi is definitely one of the better actresses to come out of Asia in quite some time. She's lovely, talented, and a magnficent dancer.
    I have yet to see a movie featuring her that I did not enjoy.

    I look forward to seeing more of her work in the future.

    Ziyi is one of the most talented actresses of our generation and I personally prefer her over Bai Ling. She is so beautiful and my favorite movie of hers is Memoirs of a Geisha which I have not seen, but have heard it is really good and critics love it. I am absolutley infatuated with Ziyi Zhang!

    Zhang Ziyi (Chinese: ÕÂ×Óâù; pinyin: Zh¨¡ng Z¨«y¨ª) (born February 9, 1979) is a Chinese actress. The characters of her name can be literally translated as Zh¨¡ng (a surname, not to be confused with the more common Zh¨¡ng ÕÅ), Z¨« (child), and Y¨ª (happin hide show

    She represents all chinese young women to ppl in western world, because they have so few knowledge about chinese women that the only few resources they can find stuffs about young chinese women is from ziyi, how she interacts in films and reality. and look at how silly she is in that interview, lol I mean stupid, not silly.
