Review - Saving General Yang

Image taken from bubbleview.com
Saving General Yang is a movie casted by : Adam Cheng, Ekin Cheng, Vic Chou, etc. A movie about family, honor, loyalty and spirit. The story itself is based upon a true story, this will be seen at the last of the movie.
General Yang is a famous general in the country, known from all of his achievement in winning wars and the emperor also respect him. General Yang has 7 sons, the 6-7 son never been to war before. The 6th son built a relationships with princess chai, but somehow the emperor put an arranged married between princess chai and prince Yan, this will be one of the milestone in the movie, kind of think of it, its quite similar with troy.
Anyway, a war broke and General Yang is ordered to lead in the front field of the war to face the Khitan Klan. He was cornered and badly injured, so his wife come to well known teacher to ask for his advise and the teacher said " 7 sons will go, 6 will comeback" , and this will be the question runs in my head while watching this movie.
This movie will teach us about loyalty, loyal to your family and your country. How we respect our parents, and see our parents as our role model. General Yang and his wife is a successful parents, they successfully teach their sons to become a respectful person and also love their brothers dearly. With 7 sons you can imagine there will be lots of characters, each of the son characters shown in the movie quite well, they all have their talents and passions.
One of the best mandarin movie I've seen, my eyes pampered with beautiful pictures and scenery in the movie. Although I think there are still lack of emotions played, but this movie is quite entertaining.
I give this movie 3,5/5 stars!
