BODYGUARDS AND ASSASSINS

Just watched ” Bodyguards And Assassins ” yesterday ( although I watch the downloaded 1.. XD ) . Awesome movie !! Highly recommended . It is a courageous and touching story on how China ’s revolution began . A story where many lost their lives to protect Sun Yat-sen , the founding father of The Peoples’ Republic of China , on his visit to Hong Kong to discuss with fellow Tong Meng Hui members plans of revolution against the thousand – years – old monarchy system in China . In this story , it is mainly the corrupt Qing Dynasty . The story revolves around people from all walks of life . They sacrificed their lives in order for their fellow countrymen and the future generation of China to live in a democratic country . The one that I found most courageous and touching is Li Chongguang – the 17-year-old only son of businessman Li Yutang . He is a fervent supporter of the revolution and goes against his father’s will to do so . He was murdered by the assassin , Yan Xiaoguo , while acting as a decoy to divert the assassins away from Sun Yat-sen . His death could be avoided as Sun Yat-sen has already left Hong Kong at the moment he was murdered . He has a bright future buy sadly his life is sacrificed for a better tomorrow for China ..

Nevertheless this is a very interesting and touching story . A must watch for those who love action and meaningful movies ..
