Review of The Eight Hundred (2020) by Unclewillard — 25 Feb 2021
Excellent production values and effects. It really has very gritty and realistic combat scenes, but it suffers from both cheesy dialogue and obvious pandering to Chinese patriotism. Not the end of the world, we have some cheesy, patriotic movies that are still a fun watch in the States, but the obvious Iwo Jima rip-off pushed it over the top for me.
Still a good watch and a visual treat, but that cheesy patriotism spoils it.
