    Copy of a copy (a historical farce)

    OK, the title is strong; this movie is nonsense. First, it has been "americanized", with John Rabe removed entirely and made into a 'nice' American. If you really want a movie that depicts real people in real events (and still is a watchable movie!) - actually risking their lives to save people in Nanking, try the movie "John Rabe", not this monstrous attempt to change history.

    That said, the movie does have wooden actors who march through scenes like sticks; bad make-up with children occasionally bloodied and dirty after a battle/bloodbath and left nicely washed the next part of the scene.

    Conclusion? Don't bother. Somewhere there is an exciting clothes-dryer that needs watching - and that will provide a much better experience.
