Hero movie review

"Hero" is a fictional movie based on semi-actual events. Allow me to explain. There was a time when China was divided into warring states. During that time, the king of the state of Chin, Chin Shi, made it his divine mission to conquer all the other states and unite the country. During that mission, there was an attempt on his life by an assassin who failed. However, that assassin was not from the state of Zhou, as this movie tells us. Therefore, using this movie for learning history is not a good choice. Using the movie for entertainment, however, is a very good choice. The movie begins with a brief written dialogue about what is happening in Warring States-era China. It ends with "In every war, there are heroes on both sides." Then we see a man who introduces himself to us as "Nameless" (because he was never given a name due to orphanage) being escorted into the presence of Chin Shi. He is being honored for slaying three people who previously tried to assassinate Chin Shi. The king tells Nameless to give an account of his battles with these three. However, is his account really what happened? In order to find out, you'll have to watch the movie. This movie is purely for entertainment. However, there are some discussion questions you can consider: Chin Shi plans to unite the warring states by conquering them. Is his method acceptable? Why or why not? Near the end of the movie, one of the characters says that Chin Shi must not be assassinated. He later explains that having the states united would save many more lives than if the states kept fighting. Nameless shamelessly admits that his motive is revenge for his family's death. Is either character right?
