staring over 150 top actors ?


WTF is that ? are they *beep* serious ? they will the top actors as cameos , or background soldiers ?
that's single handedly the stupidest thing I've ever read in a campaign.

I agree they should have made a different trailer and campaign for the English speaking audience. "All star cast" would've been better wording.

Pls believe it, they may be not the top 150 stars of the world, but they are the top stars of China! This movie is about the "Party", which is the biggest boss in China, so don't be surprise.
You can get more about it, on one of the biggest download website in China: http://www.verycd.com/entries/506559/
If you cannot read Chinese, you can just have a look at the amazing score: 2.2/10! Oh, you can't give a score less than 2 in that website.
Have Fun!

Well considering that they will be rewriting history, a little lie about the number of actors is hardly a big thing;)

sweet sweet government propaganda.

The Chinese communist regime are becoming notorious for trying to gift-wrap its brutality in glory and glamor. Its rather sickening to be honest.

Propaganda and authotarian regimes goes hand in hand. This should not be surprising to anyone. If anything, propaganda in today's China is much less pervasive than during the 60's (not a compliment!). Most people probably would go see this film for the stars, not the political message.

Sapere Aude!
