Red Cliff, hits all of the bases
One of the best two part movies I’ve seen. Red Cliff is two parts because the story is long and interesting and they couldn’t fit all if it in one film. The movie is directed by John Woo and this is his comeback film, which was much worth waiting for. With a strong cast and well acted characters Red Cliff is simply amazing. The movie is about beating the odds. There is a small army vs. a very large army which is lead by a power hungry leader who will stop at nothing, except he will go even further for a woman who is married to the other side. The movie never stops impressing by the incredible acting, to the amazement of how the small army outwits and out thinks the large army in every aspect. I usually am not the biggest fan of old day war movies, but this movie is my favorite in its category for sure. The movie features many well-known actors and they seem to show their talents very well in this film. The movie shows great friendships being built, strong alliances, and trusting your allies. Red Cliff shows how being smart and patient will overcome those who are too certain of something and too power hungry and how sometimes working with others effectively can be better than trying to do something on your own even if you have more.
Watch these movies and you will surely be satisfied.
