I'm very glad such a great and respectable director will direct this movie. My grandfather Charlie Bond was a flying tiger and just passed away on Aug 18, 2009, I just wish he would have been able to see it, but then again he probably will. Thank you Mr. Woo!!

If u want to get technical about war films he has done more than u say. He has done Heroes Shed No Tears and Bullet in the Head bith which were vietnam films.

“This will be Woo's third war film after directing the two-part RED CLIFF saga and the Hollywood production WINDTALKERS.”

If we count RED CLIFF as two movies, I guess this would be John Woo's fourth war film as BULLET IN THE HEAD is very much about the Vietnam war…

I don't know. I never warmed up to Woo. However, I haven't seen RED CLIFF yet and I'm dying to do so!

i dont know what to say about that. but if you make a movie about something that really happened and drastically change it…its sad, cause those hero's wont be honored. this is one of the great wars we are talking about. its a hollywood move if you really think about it, they did the same thing with “21″ casting almost the entire cast white when they were actually asian. guess they figured chinese audiences wont go see a film majorly played by Caucasians….or rather they wouldnt go see a film where the white man is protecting them. either way its sad.hopefully someoe will truly honor these men.
