For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Are you kidding me? 7/10 or whatever the popular vote was? This is a classic. 10/10. If you liked "Empire of the Sun," one of Christian Bale's earliest film roles, or "The Pianist," and/or have an affinity for real human tragedy and depths of compassion and integrity that can blossom from the lowest of human intentions - then please, watch this! For American viewers, this film offers the opportunity to step into the shoes of others who have suffered in war and at the hand of foreign invaders. Great job Christian Bale and the many Chinese actors and actresses who made this film believable!

So far I have never wrote a review on any film that I have seen in my life. This film however is a wee bit different. This film really touched me and I did not look away from the screen for even a second. I can recommend everyone to watch this film that is even remotely interested in history. I will keep this particular review short only because there is plenty to read and I can only say: watch this film.This is a real masterpiece.

I really like watching this movie. The story had a very good plot and most actors have a very good performance. Chrisitan Bale is a fantastic actor and could show one of his acts in this movie. Moreover, the story can take you to the end of the movie. I think this movie could teach us lessons about humanity and how the war can cause damages and destroy people. It also could show us that everybody, even though, with peccadilloes in life, can change to a hero if they wants. I like the way John decide to stay in the church and the way that people in church accept each other and showed unity, which seems unlikely but can happen in hardship. Good movie!

In 1937, Nanking stands at the forefront of a war between China and Japan. As the invading Japanese Imperial Army overruns China's capital city, desperate civilians seek refuge behind the nominally protective walls of a western cathedral. Here, John Miller (Christian Bale), an American trapped amidst the chaos of battle and the ensuing occupation takes shelter, joined by a group of innocent schoolgirls and thirteen courtesans, equally determined to escape the horrors taking place outside the church walls. Struggling to survive the violence and persecution wrought by the Japanese army, it is an act of heroism which eventually leads the seemingly disparate group to fight back, risking their lives for the sake of everyone.
