Jin Gang Chuan

This movie is about China's involvement in the Koran war with an ill-equipped army. The cinematography is excellent as were the majority of the actors. The pacing was a little slow, but this was due to the strategy involved, and not the directing. However, some scenes were used more than once, which was odd. One commentator wrote that this movie is propaganda; well, what does that make Saving Private Ryan and Pearl Harbor, if not over the top propaganda war movies?

Very good war drama. Has good action and I love how they filmed from both the POV of foot soldiers, the American warplanes, and the gunners side to get a close-up of what it was like on the battlefield for each perspective.

No pun intended - actually the international title of the movie. Or is it just the german title? Not sure, but anyway, the movie is based on historical events and may elevate certain things too. I can not tell you how accurate it is. I can tell you that it feels quite patriotic. But you should not have an issue with that. US movies do the same thing - making the heroes bigger than they are.

In war time certain sacrifices have to be made. Production values are really good - the setting seems simple enough. Or at least it is contained so you won't lose your train of thoughts or won't get lost in who is who and who is fighting for whom. Action and drama work hand in hand - not the best movie ever (at least for me), but nmore than decent enough.

The narration says that the United States invaded China and China fought for self defense and for their people. Sadly, 70 years after the war, Chinese government still not telling its people the truth, i.e., the north Korean invaded the south first, and the south and its allies are actually defending themselves. The reason for China to be involved in the war is not because Chinese people are heroes like depicted in the movie, but the results of political game between Chinese communists and Soviet Union communists. Ordinary people died in vain. They are "the sacrifice" for the politics.

The moving shooting and special effects are actually not bad except the part that the cowboy hat never flew away with open canopy on fighter jet. It's so fake.

I couldn't find any factual basis of the story lines of this movie. Other than the fact that the Chinese flooded across bridges to fight UN troops along with the North Korean instigators which the intro of the movie lied about. I wouldn't waste your time watching this garbage. The cinematography did look nice which is a testament to how far special effects have come. Most of it appears to be CGI.

The human bridge story line seems to be made up and based on a 2016 incident of North Korean soldiers doing something similar for a construction project.

Watched via prime, it's sad that they're pushing this trash on that platform.

Don't waste your time with this one.
