Red Cliff Movie

But did you see the drastically cut down version (for markets outside of Asia)? It was made as 2 movies (first one release last year), but they decided that non Asians couldn't hack that and turned into one cut down version. Needless to say plenty got cut out.

I saw part 1.

As my knowledge on the three kingdoms was limited to a quick read on a novel, and a bit of PS2 game, I couldn't spot any fishy misinterpretation or historical inaccuracy of the movie. Except my image of Liu Bei was always a handsome young fellow.

Anyway, I loved the movie. The action spectacle and the good old Chinese style Cinematography if thats the word, is just amazing. The movie was beautiful, stylish and worth every minute you sit and watch.

I'm eager to watch part 2

Nah, saw part 1. The one where it ends with Cao Cao's fleet slowly parking right across the river where Zhou and Zhuge were.

Good, it is difficult to find the separate parts outside of Asia, which is a pity. One movie reviewer here said that the single movie was like joining the 3 Lord of the Rings movies and then cutting it in half.
