Battle of Red Cliff Review

While the whole world is queueing up to be the first to get their hands on iPhone, I'm proud to say I'm the first few hundreds to catch 赤壁 in Singapore first. (lame, nvm..)

Well, gd show overall, with a disappointing ending, not becoz it's lousy, but becoz there's no ending.. Should have thought of that when I realised that there is no burning ship on the trailers. The whole theatre complained and you can hear whispers ard you saying "Huh?! that's it??"

Overall still a not bad show though.. gd battle scenes and some funny parts to entertain the ladies not there for the history portion, for historians, it's kind of 三国演义 的演义, watch it and you might understand what i trying to say.

Complaints about Lin Zhi Ling being a "vase" in the show, just like a friend brought it up, "How can 小乔 not be a vase in this show?" So what if you put an Oscar winner at the role, nothing much she can do for that role, so stop complaining..

Must repeat myself.. kinda love the jokes between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, pls be reminded that they dun really exist is history..
