Plot:
It's a heroic tale of three blood brothers and their struggle in the midst of war and political upheaval. It is based on "The Assassination of Ma," a Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) story about the killing of general Ma Xinyi. The story was filmed by Zhang Che in 1973 as The Blood Brothers.

My Comment:
I thought it was going to be a happy end (which it would be impossible for Chinese war movies). I cried hard when General Pang had to kill men for his nation. It was the toughest bravest thing to do. Especially when he had to breach his brotherhood's pledge. The point is I hate government that's full of conspiracy, just like this movie. Nice interpretation!
