when it comes to the case of Chinese anti war movies of the Sino-Japanese invasion normally 9 out of 10 movies goes mostly over the top or obviously made for just be a propaganda movie.
But in this case The Resistance is more then that, it's not a war movie or a an anti war movie at all, it's more of an assassin movie or an action/adventure movie with a style of a female heroine movie, one could say Hu Sang who play Xiaoyun is a woman version of Zorro.
On the other hand, it can't be compared with Mulan who is a typical war story and that movie is more focus on the war with epic knight tale and how the legends was described.
But for what it is, The Resistance is epic as a story of it's own, with beautiful landscape of China, and combined of history drama and ninja adventure.

An interesting movie about 3 female assassins with one princess who fights for their tavern on the beach.
The movie show beautiful location of Vietnamese beaches and should make it good international.
Some scenes feels a little too much, for example some over-sexual scenes and the infamous singing scene feel a little too much filler.
And also the story of the Lady Assassin is happening too fast, why is the princess kidnapped and why do the 3 assassins want to keep her?
But what it does best is the martial art, sometimes too many wires but it's a fantasy movie.
But it's a good film, I'm glad this movie is out on the market international.
