Viewing Notes

It made me want to read up on the China’s history, specifically the transition to nationalism from imperialism but the movie itself is pretty flat. Everything felt rushed and not enough time given to really dig into what’s going on and why. Part of that may be my general lack of knowledge of the era but still.
