OPERATION RED SEA (CHINESE: ENGLISH SUBTITLES)

Emotionally pulverizing, exhilarating, astounding, director Dante Lam blazingly enters the realm of  “Greatest Battle Movies” ever to daunt the screen, joining the ranks of “The Bridge on the River Kwai”, “Apocalypse Now”, “Black Hawk Down”, “Saving Private Ryan”, “The Hurt Locker”, “American Sniper”; the dazzling intensity of “Operation Red Sea” kept an oversold audience in stunned silence for a two and a half hour, breathtaking journey, a rescue mission executed by the Chinese Navy Elite Jiaolong Assault Team.

Based on actual events that took place during the Yemen Civil War in 2015; China evacuated 600 Chinese citizens and 225 foreign nationals; jingoistic, chauvinistic in its message, thrillingly depicted  “Operation Red Sea” is a cross-pollination between two cultures that is worthy of universal viewing.

FOUR STARS!!!!
