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.

    It's a much bigger investmennt, but the TV series Age of Awakening is on YouTube. It's about the founding of Communist Party of China and the May Fourth Movement. It was popular in China.

    Viki.com has a lot of dramas and films for free with ads, mostly out of East Asia. They have The Eight Hundred, which is a WW2 movie, but not sure how many other films they have in the genre you're looking for (it's mostly slop).

    Viki also has the well-received live action TV adaptation of Three Body Problem. I also would recommend the shorter series Reset, which isn't historical at all but is quite well done.
