Less controversial than the Olympic Torch relay but the most anticipated two-part movie since Kill Bill, the first half of John Woo's epic  Rec Cliff (formerly known as The Battle of Red Cliff) is reportedly still heading for a release date that will co-incide with this summer's Beijing Olympics. Part 2 is expected at the end of the year.

The movie(s) tell the story of a historic battle in the warlord controlled China of 208 AD. It is rumoured to be the most expensive Chinese film ever made with a budget estimated to be in the region of 80 million dollars (US).
