赤壁 II / Red Cliff II

Caught 赤壁 II on Sunday with my sis at GV vivo.

Impressive battle scenes...red cliff and also a "red" fire wall during the important war battle in the romance of three kingdoms...

For the 2nd installment of the movie, it focused more on the actual battling...hence lost the essence of the 1st part where there are more showcase of 孔明 & 周瑜 strategies...

Also the movie portrayed 周瑜 as a gentlemen, however the story actually describes on how jealous is he of 孔明...and also the reasons for various scenes between 孔明 & 周瑜...which was lost in this movie...(according to my sis, an ardent fan of the story)

nonetheless the movie is worth watching especially on the big screen, with the epic battle scene
