A moving and well-crafted war drama
I find Rain of Red to have a strong screenplay, adapted from a famous novel, staying faithful to history while portraying both a humanistic perspective and a heroic spirit. The sets are carefully prepared, and the actors deliver heartfelt, emotional performances. The ensemble cast is highly commendable, though one cameo feels somewhat out of tune and slightly disrupts the film's emotional flow. At times, the film also feels slightly stage-like, with certain repeated scenes of the Republic of Vietnam meetings becoming somewhat tedious. Still, it is a powerful and moving film overall - definitely worth watching. The good news is that the movie comes with English subtitles, making it accessible to international viewers.
