Look. If you can ignore some of the Chinese propaganda (honestly, we've seen this for 50 years from the Americans now, why are the Chinese not allowed to do the same?) and some of Chinas ulterior motives in the south china sea, then you are getting a fucking insane non-stop 2 hour+ action galore here. Operation Mekong was pretty crazy already but THIS is next level. Considering some of the garbage from china I've seen in the last year, this is WAY above all of that. Fantastic production values, a good FX budget and some crazy on-location shot's in Morocco that you simply have not seen in anything from China yet. Also the gore and mutilation in this was something I absolutely did not expect. So yeah, watch if for the non-stop action and have a good time!

Some great action, mixed in with a bit of military propaganda. [spoiler] I was really surprised when the main cast lost their plot armor. Did not expect that at all. [/spoiler]

meh. it was action packed definitely. I enjoyed that part. But the propaganda? The attempt to show their military powers and what they can do? This is definitely about the territorial issues in southeast asia. that put me off the movie, otherwise, it's a good action film.

This is the best Chinese movie I have ever seen
