AS a member of the Chinese armed force, I just want to say the Tibet part of this film is really messed up. No part of the uniform is correct. They had the National Police badge and wears 1980s Armed Police uniform. And the general? Well, he is a joke. The highest rank in our military is 3 stars and he got four.
This film is just entertainment. No parts of this film, neither the science, the politics, the countries pictured are properly researched. For the guys who cite these to support their superstitious end of the world theories in real life, there is nothing I can say.
