Chang jin hu: Shui men qiao

Given the cultural bias imposed by the English language in Singapore, most Chinese Singaporeans who know about the Korean War have formed their views reading Western sources. If you ever want to break out of just being a footnote to global Western cultural dominance, and acquire a sense of self, it is very important to expand your horizons by connecting with the non-Western viewpoint, be that Chinese, Iranian, Russian, Korean etc Watch this movie (Parts 1 & 2) not just for the action and stories of sacrifice of the CPV, but also for a non-Western perspective.

This war movie bounces between action scenes and emotional scenes. Much like other movies in the ww2 era, guns, grenades, bloods, and tears.

It might sound dull for an artwork. However, for front line soldiers in a war, the battleground might not be much different. Fight, mourn, fight more, mourn more, ... If this movie manages to show that two hours of that is already kind of boring, how about two weeks, two months, two years, or two decades in real life and in fear?

Disclosure: I am a pacifist who has spent an equal amount of adult life in both of the throat-cutting states in this movie.

This sequel to The Battle at Lake Changjin is heavy in battles and CGI warfare and less interested in actually creating compelling individual characters as it focuses on the remaining survivors of the first film that return to battle with a new mission. This film is just as visual stunning as the first film but like the first film, it suffers from that quality of "bigger is better" which is not always the case. This being said, it's a heavy handed and patriotic film just like PEARL HARBOR or pretty much most conservative and conventional war film (including the war/westerns of early John Wayne) so if you've seen know that going in, then you know what to expect. I doubt think that the film has way too many sequences with an astronomical amount of soldiers making those scenes "overblown" and repetitive after a while especially since the film is over 140 minutes.

It's Steven John Venn, being in the film itself i must say they did a really good job on editing and special effects. For a 2D film it really made it seem like it was a 3D film with the effects.

In China, anyone insulting martyr is likely to be put into prison. But this one has priviledge not to do so.

This one's too illogical double-standarded and ridiculous illogical.
