‘Red Cliff’ Poster

Here’s the new badass U.S. poster for ‘Red Cliff.’ A Must-See for every Movie Geek, this 5 hour, epic Chinese film from director John Woo (“Face/Off,’ ‘Mission: Impossible 2’), based on the historical events of the dramatic battle and ending of the Han Dynasty, was originally shown in 2 parts in Asia. The western release of  ‘Red Cliff’  went from a running time of 280 minutes to 150 minutes in June 2009.

From Variety:

One of the most ballyhooed Asian productions in recent history, and the most expensive Chinese-language picture ever, John Woo’s costume actioner “Red Cliff” scales the heights. First seg of the two-part, $80 million historical epic balances character, grit, spectacle and visceral action in a meaty, dramatically satisfying pie that delivers on the hype.
