Today I went to watch Red Cliff Part 2. About the movie, it was really great! As usual, Tony Leung and Takeshi Kaneshiro were both superb. I thought the supporting cast was great too! Some of them were really scene stealers! Especially during the fighting scenes
But watching that movie really made me ask questions. Questions like, is war really worth it when millions of lives are sacrificed? What does the winner get/achieve in the end after so many lives are killed? Half an army annihilated fro what purpose/greatness?
In the end, when the war has ended, Tony Leung's character had this to say:
"Today, everyone loses."
I really agree with him. Both their armies suffered great losses and yet, nothing was gained. It was a sad moment. Families were torn apart and many will never get to see their loved ones forever.
It is scary to think that war is raging in some parts of the world now. To know that people (innocent people) are dying everyday, children are starving, and families are torn apart.
Sigh... What a depressing subject.
Anyway, on a brighter note, I painted my toes red today, and boy are they HOT! Smokin' if I would say.. But, really. Red Cliff 2 is really a great anti-war movie. I think the message is clear and the acting is great. Anyhow, watch it for Takeshi Kaneshiro if nothing else! He's hot hot hot! And funny too!
Baby!!!
