VCD

Over the weekend I rented 2 movies to watch. One is The Forbidden Kingdom and the other is Hua Mu Lan. Like the Hua Mu Lan better. It is a movie by Zhao Wei. The ending is no fairytale ending which I think is realistic. At times I feel movies have a tendency to end in the fairytale manner which is clique. In an imperfect world, perfect endings may not often happen in real life. Thus we should try to enjoy the process of living rather than being too bothered about the ending.

The main character in the movie is a thoughtful, courageous and filial lady. She is also intensively loyal to her people. She is willingly to die for her people so that the war can end. In the end, she sacrified her happiness so that there can be peace for her people. The camaraderie and loyalty showed by the soldiers in the movie is indeed touching.
