Dead to Rights, a film set during the Nanjing Massacre, opened in domestic theaters on Friday.

Marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45), the film revisits one of the most barbaric episodes of World War II through the perspective of a group of unsung heroes.

The Nanjing Massacre occurred when Japanese troops captured Nanjing on Dec 13, 1937. Over the course of six weeks, they slaughtered around 300,000 Chinese civilians and unarmed soldiers.

Set against the Nanjing Massacre, the film follows a group of civilians sheltering in a photo studio.

Forced to develop a Japanese military photographer's film to survive, they accidentally uncover photographic proof of the atrocities. Initially focused on mere survival, they ultimately risk everything to preserve the evidence and expose the war crimes.

The movie is directed by Shen Ao and features a stellar cast, including actors Liu Haoran and Wang Chuanjun, as well as actress Gao Ye.

During the film's Beijing premiere on Thursday, director Shen said he has a special bond with reels of film as a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy, and shared that one of his most memorable assignments was to tell a story using only four developed photos.

Shen also revealed that the new movie is adapted from the same real-life story that inspired the 1987 film Massacre in Nanjing, which is about a Chinese doctor who risks his life to expose photos documenting Japanese troops slaughtering Chinese civilians to the international community.

Economy bad, time to drum up nationalistic spirit

Wumao need to stir up racism disguised as nationalism to defeat grandmaster Japan.

evil

When are they going to make a movie of Zhang Xianzong's Sichuan massacre that wiped off 90% of the people there?

FREE FREE PALESTINE!

CCP same mindset with terrorist , always good at promoting hates .

angmoh also talking about it

No John Rabe? The Good Nazi??

we need another Pearl Harbour movie! lol

what about the square

holocaust asian version

cinematography wise looks good mang..

Is that why Hollywood been making all those great American hero movies?

When will they make a movie about Mao's cultural revolution massacre which resulted in 2 million deaths?

Karma for them for being so cruel, killing and raping so many innocent people during the WW2, now their future generation women all become fapping materials to the world.

Why not start from the beginning, Qin Shi Huang? He also bought great misery and death but nowadays, most people think he also did a lot of good.

Americans are special. They really believe that their country is the best and they are the best people. Yes, they are that stupid, just look at who they elected as their president.

Japan ppl are evil

Lmao just one movie about a taboo event perpetrated by their favourite country and all the weaboos come up what-aboutism. Remember Japan says there is no such event happened and the weebs rather be in denial. Meanwhile so many movies about Holocaust and no one protested that.

Where they find those Japanese actors?

Jepunis cakap no such thing happened. CCP propaganda.

Need to divert the attention

I thought Hung jie's Nanjing massacre

i bet many k/ still watch jap prawn.. dont know what is so nice.. the moaning damn sharp from start to the end

Later sure Japan government condemn this movie

China will never let go this piece of massacre history

If only JAV can be the redemption for CCP

If only people knew the truth. But very few wants to know the truth.

petpenyubobo

It's more like a nationalistic 'reminder' movie, when you are weak kena genocide thus one need to be strong and feared to prevent this happening again or just become colonial master's loyal lapdog like taiwan

Cmon la antagonist should be murican and Zionists la
Japan is allies among Asia. Don't get divided and conquered by white elites and Zionists.

i read the nanjing book etc. this really expose how China people are sissies. Got so many people, going to die already but got no guts and brotherhood to band together and die.

Rather wait to be slaughtered.

You see some tribal culture, they would rather fight and die then to be sissy and die.

I conlan7firm this movie will not be showing in Jepunis!!

High Court rejects probe into Malayan Emergency 'massacre'

Campaigners calling for an official investigation into the alleged massacre of 24 Malaysian rubber plantation workers by British troops more than 60 years ago lost a High Court fight today.

Relatives of victims challenged a Government decision not to hold an inquiry into the shootings at Batang Kali, Malaya, in December 1948.

Nanjing was only 1 battle. China killed more Jap soldiers compared to the Americans during WW2 (not counting the civilians the US killed by high altitude bombing and nukes).

When wan to do Tiananmen Square massacre movie?

remind me of my great uncle that get tortured by jap soldiers till he lose his mind, evil people

Uyghurs, nobody got eyes or ears or time for them....

japunis so evil.

gonna watch 24hr jav without paying a single cents

But they have no alternative? Look at the other Western countries. All very weak, and all Pro China.

Huh? PRC already world no.2 now. They beaten Jipunis and every old days imperial power already in terms of economy and development.

You got my like

Cukur only happened in nanjing and not in malaysia...

Either made by Taiwanese or that’s never gonna be made.

Why no make movie about Gaza?

Really? U never read about the atrocities of Jipunis soldiers against local Chinese during their Malaya invasion?

Not in terms of class and perfection they China can never beat them.

History is written by the victors, enuf said.
This is just CCP way of enforcing prolonging CCP rule.
Disguise as nationalism, making people unable to differentiate between country and political party.

Jepunis soldiers quite ruthless the way they torture Cainis so bad that lot of Cainis give macha and nasi lemak their baby's so don't get and kill. Jepunis have deep hatred for Cainis they see only Samurai sword come out for guy or piap for woman.

i support china to get back to japan land and do the same , rise to rape all of them

end it once for all

LOL why u as a non Jipunis need to look up to foreigners until that level?

Funny how the CCP accuse everyone else of changing history but they themselves do not acknowledge KMT's contribution and did not even show the ROC flag. This is a historical film, it should be impartial. It is like making a WWII D-Day without the Nazi flag.

Probably gonna skip this and wait for jack sparrow version. The 300 was the last best modern historical movie from China.

Wrong.

Loser Jipunis also rewrite their history by amending their school history text book to bypass most of their WWII atrocities.

Japan repented since WW2, they got nuked and firebombed until they insap. By none other than America.

And yet today, who is hostile to America?

you go save them then

well get tortured as amusement is life changing for my grandma..hurt till the day she dies

Who?

Who is hostile towards the entire world with tariff war? Who has been setting up military bases all around the world after WWII? Was it China or Murica?

Who seeks to dominate the whole world with Corruption as its primary weapon? Soft kill. Not hard kill.

Later you die at their hands, nobody comes to save you.

Japanese soldiers are estimated to have killed between 2.6 million to 3.1 million people during World War II, primarily in occupied territories. In contrast, the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki resulted in approximately 150,000 to 246,000 Japanese deaths.

Above is AI generated figure just for you to digest.

u mean 800 ?

Tokyo firebombing killed well over 100,000. No need nukes.

It's "odd" that Google doesn't display AI for this search term...

how many china sissies are there?

Their loyalty the dedication their ethics at some areas of life is the highest standard though not 100 pc practical but their will power is strong.

Dominate world with corruption? You talking about Americans?

We will likely die in America hands first lah

No other countries in the world bomb people and used nukes before

Like I repeatedly tell you, lay of the FLG and WION news lah 😜

I hope u just assuming? kmt flags are always shown in that era movie. Even for the upcoming military parade they have invited kmt veterans to watch the parade

Wumao also rewrite history say South China Sea their ancestors land since ancient times as well as annexing Xinjiang and Tibet while claiming liberation pundek padahal they colonise them and torture so I rather trust Japanese version of history than Chinaman.

Then later got people say, aiyo China businesses all coming here and displacing the local Chinese.

If your business crumbles and you no more money to survive, that's your problem ya? Not them.

Topkek, corruption blame who again?

Cannot compete with PRC just like Murica so everyday make PRC the bogeyman as world’s biggest threat?

I’m no fan of communist party but I won’t be so silly as to follow westerners propaganda just because u dislike rising China.

See my reply above.

dont the chinese audience find it boring to see this type of movie theme. play like a broken record ..keep repeating the same ryhme.

You watch all those American war movies, you not bored?

How is businesses outcompete by PRC relevant to this topic?

If that’s the case then u should ask why local govt failed to provide some assistance/protection to grow local business. Not solely blame competitors.

If biz crumbles, you blame your competitor?

If like that all the people in Finland should hate America as Nokia was brought down by Apple! LOL

What is Soft Kill to both of you? Let's hear.

Remember remember
Don't support budaya nippon paint

So the world should feel remorse for bombing the invaders that massacre millions overseas?

Nobody will sorry for ur black eyes if u started a brutal fight.

If you so worried about China, then you should be more worried about US as they have been "soft-killing" the world!

I guess I know why you hate China so much. You biz lingkup because cannot compete with them. LOL!

I have good news for you. You always said Skynet will depopulate the world. The good news is China is 100% Pro Skynet.

Please don't show your bodohness to everyone lah. Please go offer up everything you own to China and let them have it.

They only meet your leaders and politicians, when they come here. They don't meet you. They don't even acknowledge you.

Nice, ayam also pro Skynet

Soft Kill

Got ma. So many ww2 movies made in China that depict nationalist army.

In fact it is DPP that refuse to acknowledge their history of Japanese resistance. They threatened to revoke pension of their WW2 vets if they dare visit China event commemorating anniversary of resistance against imperial Japan.

8.2 imdb rating ... must be decent.

seeing these agitated replies are decent too. thanks for the entertainment

whats the movie about? is it about ppl push push people into big hole and later cover the hole with sand?

The movie about covering a nation economic disaster by pushing different type of spin on it.

Worse than that. Much much worse

Not soft kill if Skynet deploy terminators.

It happen here also la
go talk to the elders la. Tua-tua dy, why wanna fitnah Jap.

Feels like the whole world is doing the same

A majority of population who lives in cities, tend not to fight against the authorities, and when that authority is usurped, you think, 300,000 start to think like warlords and pick up forks to fight the invader that killed most of the defending soldiers?

It is logical that yes, they will not fight like those individuals tribes like in north American natives, and for those American natives who fought bravely and frequently just as barbaric as the invading Europeans... They eventually all die out and even extinct.

Just like 90% of ktards probably is keyboard warrior only.

.....and that was how World War 1 and 2 started.........

kasi chance la
In the novel/series "3 body problem" also showed some of it dy.

Countries need to come to grips with what they have done. Germany has done it pretty well by admitting what they had done as a society and incorporating it into their education system. Japan has hardly acknowledged what they had done and they don't teach their kids what they had done. CCP is probably even worse coz admitting that chairman Mao was a maniacal despot will probably get you killed.

Where to lanun?

The reason why Japan does not want to admit is becos, they have to admit they conducted their atrocities largely on the Chinese. If they did it to other races, they would have admitted by now.

Both China and Japan are on totally opposite sides of the spectrum. However, today, it is Chinese going to Japan and trying to sneak in and live there. Not the other way round. In spite of China so maju now.

The Jews tracks and hunts all Nazis. Even if the Nazis are currently 100+ year old, still drag them to the court.

A lot of jap war criminals were pardon by US. Their descendants continue to rule Jap.

China gov, including CCP also never really hunt down those responsible too.

The Jap was playing Squid Game. But you know lah, the rules were rigged and they did not expect a final winner.

last time japan evil

now CCP's turn evil to their people

CCP killed way more chinese than Japan

Only in k, a China movie can attract all sorts of criticism from AMDKs
