I've watched some Chinese war movies on YouTube but I only found them cause someone either linked it directly or gave me the name of it. I'd also need English subs, I only know like 15 words of Mandarin lol.

I was wondering if they had a cool movie about the Chinese Civil War/revolution. I'm really a sucker for literally any war movie but I'm down with anything that's actually good.

    I've tried watching Chinese war movies. The ones made nowadays all have English subtitles. However, they're just terrible. Overly dramatic, overwrought, 100% pure heroes and 100% evil villains, I can't get through one of them. You'd think the action scenes could save them, but no. I can only like the scenes with massive numbers of extras, like when Hollywood used to make movies with the Roman legions of thousands of men marching around the battlefield with absolutely zero CGI.
