The few clips I have seen seem to have no relation to the life of the historical figure whatsoever. It is so disappointing when they make a film with a real historical figure and then distort their story out of all recognition (e.g. "Dragon" for Bruce Lee and "Imitation game" for Alan Turing).
- robocat 4y agoYes. The films are mostly entertainment only - only the facts have been changed. The movies are hilariously sinocentric, but enjoyable for what they are. Much the same as plenty of US movies being sickeningly rah-rah the USA.
