Decoded

The movie is really long ... a total of 2 hours and 40ish minutes... going in I thought i was going to fall asleep and miss out a few scenes but the story actually kept me up.

Think of this movie as what Oppenheimer SHOULD have been... Oppenheimer being so long drawout, boring, slow, and way too political correct... This movie hits the sweet spot between being insightful/intelligent vs story telling/fiction. The flow of the plot is just very well thoughtout that it keeps a consistant pace yet kept the contents interesting without trying to display political correctness and at the same time, kept the story mostly true to the past history in China. If you don't know much about the war in China, you'll learn alot about it. If you already know what had happened, you'll see it from a different yet very realistic perspective.

Highly recommeneded.

John cusack did an absolutely Oscar worth acting in the movie.
