We caught this movie on the 1st day it was screen. Nick is a fan of 三国志. We decided to catch it before he goes to Perth on Sat.
We watched the 10pm slot on a Thursday... Before the movie start, I was asleep oreadi...hahah.... I woke up when the movie finally start... I thought I will be sleeping away half the movie... but I was wrong...
The story is not something I am familiar with but the way John Woo directed the movie is quite interesting... such a long winded story he can make it interesting in its way... mid way of the show, it was like introduction to the 3 brothers, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. I like Zhuge Liang the most...hahaha....
This is only part 1 of the battle of Red Cliffs. The most interesting part on burning the battle ships of cao cao is not in this movie. It will be in part 2.
This movie actually triggle my interest to read more abt the story. Found 2 links which are the most comprehensive one...
