Japanese American Film, Hong Kong Style

Although "Fenglin Volcano Yinlei" originated from "Sun Tzu's Art of War", if Takeda Shingen didn't know about it, there would be more than half of the people who knew it. Since the 19th century, Japan's cultural feedback to China has been a very large-scale existence, which is particularly evident in this film. This should have something to do with the background of director John Woo and the entire creative team (including actors).
But it's fundamentally a Hollywood blockbuster, with massive war scenes, gag gimmicks, and reflections on human nature. In this sense, this is a main theme film.
Some so-called very shocking lines are actually quite normal from the perspective of the soil produced by Hong Kong films. You can't expect anyone to talk about history with you seriously.
Compared with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this film is closer to history in shaping the images of Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang. The splendor of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is naturally far beyond what the movie can match, but literature and video are different media after all, and the angles of presentation are completely different, so there is no need for comparison.
