The Last Supper (China, 2012)

The story of two warring generals, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, fighting for control of China at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

That's the easiest way of summing up the complex and rich plot of The Last Supper. Lu Chuan, who also directed the fantastic City of Life and Death (2009), is back with this historical drama based on true events. The production value is sky high and the sets looks stunning, there's something about Lu Chuan and having beautiful settings. Because of the huge cast and all the flashbacks, visions and double-crossings, it really will gain a lot by watching it a second time. But that's fine, it's a great, chinese epic and deserves your time.

Genre: Action/History
