The Is The First Review I Have Ever Written On Here & I Was Forced To Do It Because I Saw This Had Only 1 Review & a 2 Rating. I Have Seen 10's Of Thousands Of Movies In My Life (Yea I Know Who Hasn't) And This Movie Instantly Rocketed Into My Top 5 Movies Of All Time. Instantly.......Instantly.....Terrific ACTION Great ACTING Based On a TRUE Story That Most People On The Little Island Of Taiwan Don't Even Know About.....I Could Go On & On But I Don't Want To Spoil It For You....I Can't Tell You How Excited I Am To Realize There Is a International Version With 2 More Hours I Haven't Seen Yet. It's a 4 1/2 Hour Film Total & The Special Blu-Ray Has Both The 150 Minute Cut That I'm Raving About & The 4 1/2 Hour International Cut. The Taiwanese "GODFATHER/APOCALYSPE NOW" Did I Spell That Right? Whatever...Get This Movie & Prepare Your Face For a Seediq Bale Tattoo......Read full review

Awesome film regarding a less well known segment of history to western society but no less engaging. The tribal native population of Taiwan really gave the Japanese a hard lesson in colonization. When the native tribal people revolted and rose up against the their Japanese occupiers. Plenty action and drama, with a healthy dose personal honor and adherence to ancestral belief. Good use of a special effects where needed and period costume is used a surprising offering from a Taiwanese production and film industry ( which I did not even know existed ) until now. I would highly recommend this period war/drama to anyone who has an interest in this area.

I can review this movie with one word, SLOW! I bought this because I love war movies and have seen most of the American made ones. Previews looked real good for this movie, but the movie is long and dull with characters you don't really like. Bottom line, skip it.
AWESOME
