Movies recommended or seen lately... les films a voir #38. Red cliff

Genre: Drama

Annee/Year: 2008

Format: DVD

Red Cliff. This is a stunning piece of work from China on a critical part of their history. Back in 208 AD a war between the three main provinces which would eventually make up modern China were at war. This story is really an Epic in the tru sense of the word and the film is the first part of the story. John Woo directed this film with great approach and spectacular cinematography. Huge sets and some CG make the scenes really pop out. The music score is also very convincing. I only wish i had bought the blu ray version which i will most certainly do now that part 2 should be available. If you a re a history or war buff you gotta see this one. BUT be careful this film IS in mandarin with no translation, just subtitles. The effort is well worth it though.

Attention ce film est de proportion epique. Plus grands que la realite ce film de John Woo decrie la guerre ayant eu lieu entre les trois grands royaumes de la Chine de 208 AD. Il faut voir si vous etes amateur d'histoire ou film de guerre. Les images et la musique sont spectaculaires et le fait que le film est en mandarin avec sous titre anglais en vaut quand meme le cout.
