About
If you enjoy large historical war dramas with patriotic themes and a grand, old-school feel, this may work for you, especially if you liked Mamangam; Not for you if you want a tight runtime and fast pacing.
Pros: exotic locations; big-scale battles; intense background music | Cons: too long; slow story; uneven character focus
