Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The Revolution will not be televised, Gil Scott-Heron once sang. Nor should it be filmed, we might add -- at least not as a costume drama with stirring speeches, an inspirational love story and gloriously heroic military charges.

rotten:
Earnest and studious to a fault. Rarely has a film about upheaval felt more like a textbook.

May be slow going for anyone not well-versed in this chapter of Chinese history.

rotten:
Packed with so many characters and subtitled history lessons it barely allows its excellent main cast room to maneuver.

rotten:
What should be rousing stuff - a republic is born! the chains of feudalism thrown off! - remains a kind of lavishly illustrated history lesson.
