It wasn’t bad it just wasn’t anything special either. The ending was really predictable and really unsatisfying. It was longer than it needed to be and could have been a bit faster paced to keep me more interested in the story. On the other hand, it was really interesting to learn a bit about the Japanese occupation of Shanghai during ww2!!
