John Berra Screen International Given the sizeable cast, painstaking period recreation and large-scale set pieces, this is an ambitious project for a directorial debut, but Yang Feng mostly pulls it off. Nov 21, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Mellow Felloh Just a fun action movie with a bit of heart and emotion sprinkled in. Perfect Sunday afternoon movie to kick back and relax for a couple hours. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/05/21 Full Review JW Entertaining, great actors/actress, great story . Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/05/21 Full Review Jonathan Beautifully gritty. Great visuals, sound, and pacing. Cons: a dressed up bad guys Japan good guys China war story. Too too many camera cut aways made viewing uncomfortable. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/26/21 Full Review william d The film certainly looks nice, but the drama is overwrought. The Chinese people suffered greatly in a war and occupation initiated by Japan, but the Japanese soldiers are so unrelentingly evil and the Chinese fighters so overwhelmingly noble that they're just caricatures. This is the kind of war story you would find in a comic book. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review john m Really enjoyed this movie. Great acting, film sets a great mood with costumes, setting, and cinematography. Not a ton of dialog, so subtitles weren't an issue and didn't take away from the movie. Only downside is it's a dark movie, so in some scenes it's tough to tell who is who with low lighting, hats, and collars pulled up for the winter weather. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
