A nice surprise

Rating: Null/10 (1 October 2001)

In this movie, actors were the main draw for me. I had a vague idea about the storyline, and in the end I was pleasantly surprised. It is a war movie, it has a love story and interestingly the lines between the bad guys and the good ones are blurred, which makes it all the more interesting. Some viewers may be put off by the blunt violence yet that only adds to the realism. One special praise to the extraordinary production design and the photography which captures the under-siege city and the battle scenes exceptionally...
