Red Cliff
Plot
During China’s Han Dynasty, at the riverside redoubt of Red Cliff, a desperate union of rebellious kingdoms faces the might of the imperial army. Vastly outnumbered, they must use tactical genius to outwit their furious enemy.

Verdict
Camp, over-the-top and entirely unbelievable: in short, the best thing John Woo has made in years.
