Beginning of the Great Revival Ratings & Reviews
Film Journal International
Marsha McCreadie
History of Chinese Communism drowns in data.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Epic with production values and a terrific ensemble cast, but often bland and emotionally hollow.
New York Times
Andy Webster
"Revival" is a proud statement by an ascendant society. But it demonstrates that mainstream Chinese cinema can be as guilty of self-indulgent overstatement as anything out of the West.
The Hollywood Reporter
Maggie Lee
The highly-charged crowd scenes in which dissidents clash with authorities are staged with visual flair, conveying an exhilarating sense of self-empowerment which is the essence of revolution.
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
"Great Revival" is in many ways the very definition of propaganda - it even ends with an image of a waving flag - but "Revival" is too harmlessly flabby to be taken quite that seriously.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Perhaps the translation is at fault here, but why does the dialogue consistently do so little to flesh out the characters?
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
A muddled would-be epic of the Chinese Communist Party's founding, this all-star propaganda pageant plays like an incoherent lesson plan.
