My Comments

The Promise is one of the best photos I have seen. The next in line of The Dragon and Tigre. The scenes of war seem more dancing than fighting itself, but that does not minimize the glamor that the movie shows. A story engaging and profound, and a final surprise that surpassed my expectations.

It is worthwhile to be seen, I recommend.
