The announcement of the Asian Movie Awards has just been released with some big films and actors going against against each other to win the big awards. Some of these include Drug War (Louis Koo), Outrage Beyond, actors such as Choi Min-sik and Tony Leung Ka-fai, to Directors such as Takeshi Kitano and Lou Ye.

Based on the well-known story of the Hongmen Banquet, which took place in 206 B.C. The movie will be directed by Lu Chuan (City of Life and Death) and will star Daniel Wu (Shinjuku Incident, New Police Story) and Chang Chen (Red Cliff 1,2).
Plot
The story of two warring generals (Liu Bang and Xiang Yu) fighting for control of China at the end of the Qin Dynasty. The trailer shows some great stuff, big sets, interesting characters and certainly a movie i am looking forward to seeing.
Lu Chuan said, “The Last Supper is not the Hong Gate Banquet. It is the fate of a group of people. It isn’t just a banquet but a historical truth.” The actors also unveiled each character photo from drawing straws. The Ng Yin Cho version Xiang Yu’s dark domination, the Liu Ye version Liu Bang’s wild carelessness, the Chang Chen...

Directed/Written by: Lu Chuan
Starring: Liu Ye, Gao Yuanyuan, Hideo Nakaizumi, Fan Wei, Jiang Yiyan, Ryu Kohata, Liu Bin, John Paisley, Beverly Peckous, Qin Lan, Sam Voutas, Yao Di and Zhao Yisui
“City of Life and Death” is among the greatest war films ever made. Rich in humanist themes and absolutely unflinching in its depiction of the moral chaos and physical violence of war, Lu Chuan’s film about the Japanese occupation of Nanking in 1937 isn’t merely one of the year’s best films, it’s a powerful work of art and a testament to the expressive essence of pure cinema.
Inevitable comparisons will be made between “City of Life and Death” and Steven Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List” and “Saving Private Ryan.” Lu’s opening battle scenes between the Japanese invaders and a Chinese platoon — led by a stalwart patriot (Liu Ye) — have the complex staging,...
