Zhi yuan jun: Xiong bing chu ji

Just one of the most boring movies i saw.

All characters are so pale and even i consider that everyone in this movie is just the instrument to promote the farfetched story.

What's more ,the voice is too loud but you can only feel noisy instead of touching your heart.

The plot is just fragmentization and the unaccountable camera movement(such as rotation). I feel that maybe it is stitched by the short videos from TikTok.

All in all.there isn't any points can catch my eyes in this movie and the boredom overwhelm me during the experience. However i play my phone all two hours in cinema and i feel angry and disgusted now.

This film definitely deserves more attention considering how well its done in depicting the China's involvement during the 1950 Korean War. ITS ACTION PACKED AND FAST PACED. Many will call it a propaganda movie but so was the Hollywood's war movies. Take that out and just enjoy the film. The props are well done, the dialogues of the US men are quite cringy and not so US military-like but thats okay. The sounds are quite loud but thats just how real battles are which completely understandable. The CGIs are quite obvious but pretty decent. Overall this movie deserves more attention. Definitely recommended to watch.

Just watched this movie on YouTube and it was quite good. It's a completely pro Chinese propaganda but knowing and reading many books it happens to be very accurate. The Chinese definitely ambushed American forces retreating from the Yalu river and without any AirPower pushed American forces into a serious retreat. MacArthur got cocky and did think the Chinese would enter the war. Boy was he wrong.the movie was highly nationalistic and the actors seemed ok but I spent my whole war movie life watching American made movies that glorify America this is a interesting twist. Action scenes were exceptional. I recommend wholeheartedly.

It's a very fast paced movie! It feels like the entire film is all climax, but in a good way. I watched it in theaters, and the experience was very enjoyable, in my opinion, and it kept me hyper for the entire two hours and seventeen minutes!

The camera movements are very creative, and are executed very well to show perspective.

Very patriotic, very emotional story that demonstrates the courage and determination of the Chinese soldiers. Very inspiring. (If you're feeling burnt out of cross country, watch this movie.)

It may be somewhat offensive, though, since it's told from China's perspective, and the portrayal of Americans are a bit whacky, so it might not be suitable for everyone, especially those who are not Chinese/dislike the Chinese government.

But as long as you are not too petty on political perspective, you should be able to enjoy the movie like usual. Overall, I very much recommend!

Very little is known in the Western world about why China entered the Korean war, and the Chinese army was generally presented as little more than a human wave of blunt frontal attacks.

This movie tells the story from the other side. Something to be clear about is it makes no apologies for being pro-Chinese, the messaging is blunt and heavy and at times can feel a bit much. Maybe no more than many Hollywood war movies but then it can feel too much when Hollywood does it.

Something else to be clear about is it should not be treated as a history lesson, no more than a typical Hollywood movie should.

For all that it does show that the Chinese had reasons to intervene and those reasons deserve more study than they have recieved in the West.

As a movie it is fast paced with lots of action. The cast perform their roles well and it's solid entertainment. Unfortunately it tries to do too much within the run time and feels rushed and a collection of disjointed episodes than a coherent story. Some of the battle sequences are very clearly computer generated and are not at all convincing, it can feel more like a computer game at times.

Not a great movie, but enjoyable and interesting. Worth watching as long as you don't mind heavy political messaging.
