Is it a spy movie or a romance movie?

Although many people criticize this film for nothing, I still have a good impression of it, as long as you are willing to see it as a romance film.

Honestly, as a spy movie, it's kind of boring. Not enough thriller, not enough suspense, except for the gorgeous scene, it seems that there is no more brilliant point. But as a romance film, it is remarkable. And I also think that its biggest theme is still discussing love. Basically, it should be love under the confusing espionage war.

The love of the gang boss, the love of the anti-Japanese elements, the love of the American spies, the love of the Japanese officers, each of them is a love that would rather sacrifice oneself to save in the flames of the flames, and it is still a little moving.
