My Comments: Today is Saturday and I stayed at home to watch this movie via DVD before heading my journey back to Kuala Lumpur. I have chosen to watch this movie to relax myself after enjoying myself last night. This movie is truly a great movie to watch by people of all walks of life for the Chinese community. Besides, not only the Chinese community but other races and watch this movie too to know what is happening on the China's history in the past 1905. It combines love, action and also sad / murder scenes which makes this movie a total blockbuster and a hit among the Chinese community. I was so excited to know what is happening and as I go through the movie, I am so sad and almost in tears because of some scenes which features some brutal murder and how the people sacrifices to the country. It was an awesome movie and thanks to Director Teddy Chen, this movie promises it's audiences the best ever movies ever made for the year 2009 so far. If you have watched it, you will gave the same comments as me I believe and for those who haven't watch it, don't miss a chance and get yourself a DVD discs near you. MY RATING: 5/5
