Three Kingdoms

Three Kingdoms - a story of the hero - Zhao ZiLong.

Director: Daniel Lee
Cast: Andy Lau, Maggie Q, Vanness Wu, Samo Hung.

The story goes round with the life of Zhao. Start from joining as Lord Liu's warrior until the last moment of his life. And, this movie is in Mandarin.

For me, this movie is just a summary of the life of Zhao. Short and not detail enough. Understand that it is just a 1 hour 45 mins movie, can't be too detail or else it should be a series.

Sad to say, Zhao is different from the poster. In a way, he is not as handsome as in the poster. Why? You should watch this movie and you will know why. Hahaha.

This movie is similar to the '300'. And this is the Chinese version. Of course story & background is different, but the feel almost the same, which is the movie I will only watch once.

It is a good movie. But it is not the movie I will watch it, repeat & repeat.

The only message I remember from this movie is - what is the reason you fight?

Yes. What is the reason we need to study and working? There are a lot of problems, troubles, obstacles happen daily, why we still want to fight to survive? What is the reason we want to be rich? Because happy? Family? Or other reasons? And what makes us change? Maybe we need to have a time to think about it; the reasons for us to be us.
