Same category as Wolf Warrior movies. Highly disappointing.
Everything is predictable. It's a Sylvester Stallone 80s movie except the bad guy is the West instead of Russia.
Special effects are still way behind Hollywood and Korea, Japan. Lack of originality.
Nothing original about the story plot. Mediocre acting. This movie was made by Chinese people for Chinese audience.
It also gives false stereotypes about *HOW* Africa is being mistreated and who is the vilain.
I hope China releases less biaised content in a near future such as their latest movie about a woman who lost 50 kgs and becomes a boxer. That was impressive and unexpected.

So far this movie has been released in China and Thailand and I fervently hope it will stay that way.
The Chinese PR machine presents this production as UN approved and "based on true events". It was launched at May 1 in local theaters as a tribute to Chinese blue helmets who once rescued citizens from the clutches of some real nasty Africans as you can see on the film poster that looks like a apocalyptic zombie movie.
Of course this isn't the first time that the Chinese government presents us their own version of reality but really, this artist impression of the Chinese Savior Complex comes with a new low: they use blackface to infiltrate and fool the African people.
Apart from that who in his right mind can think that Africans would see a bunch of Asians with black face and dreadlocks as their own people?
In short, this movie is in a league of its own, meant for Chinese entertainment only. Don't see it.

I register an account just to rate this 10 star and write this review only.
The movie itself is ordinary, but I rate it 10 because all those anti China salty hypocrites reviews. If Hollywood can portray the West as the savior of colored people, altering real history and the guys are okay with it, then China also can made their own rambos. As simple as that.
Calling movies like this as government propaganda is ridiculous especially when the same guy said nothing about ALL Us produced movies and TV series. At least the Chinese didn't alter the criminal as the heroes like Hollywood did. So, enjoy and grind harder.
