Really amazing film, okay release
|
The film is really really great, don't get me wrong. It even deserves the Criterion treatment. The release has a pretty good video transfer, and good 5.1 Dolby tracks in Mandarin and Cantonese, plus a DTS 5.1 track in Mandarin. Subtitles in Traditional and Simplified Chinese, plus English - not that it needs much subtitles. I think the movie speaks for itself. The only extra is a 20-30min Behind the Scene video, which doesn't tell us much about the making of the film, but just shows us parts of the filming. It's not really that useful. Would've loved to know more about the treatment to black & white, and what they did in the makeup department to give contrast to the characters. What they did in the battle sequences in terms of explosions, and whatnot. |

Outstanding!!!

I never really imagine the ordeal the comfort women during the war. In the Philippines, there were also comfort women used by the Japanese soldier and was always staging protest because of what has happen to them during WWII. After watching this film, i fully understand their claim. The scene of women volunteering themselves for the sake of family is really heartbreaking. The way they being used and thrown when they died is scene you will never forget. A movie that is so touching that will bring you back in time. Love it a thousand times. |
