In 645 AD, the Tang Dynasty’s emperor Li starts his invasion into Goguryeo, one of the ancient kingdoms of Korea. One victory after another, the Tang army marches into Ansi, protected by General Yang, the lord of the fortress. Abandoned by his country and outnumbered by thousands, the brave general gathers his men and women to fight the Tang army on his own. (Palace Films)

An epic 88 day battle where the mighty Tang, leading an army of half a million that has never lost and has breached every castle across 1,000 kilometers, now has problems with the Ansi Fortress, which is defended by the brave and strategic Yang with his 5,000 soldiers. The director, unknown to me, did a decent job and made a very epic fatal battle that admittedly didn't avoid the green screen (after all, you don't get half a million extras for nothing), but I didn't mind it so much because it shows that even with the bare minimum you can compete against multiple odds. The protagonist is a nice guy and I enjoyed the strategies with his gadgets, and the confident leader on the other side as a bad guy is good as well. I also liked the introduction of the sacred bow by King Jumong, who was the only one in the world who knew how to use it. Good. 75%.
