The literal translation of the title of this movie is: Angry storm of the Fishing Island.
This movie is about the battles took a place near and on an island, but strangely enough, the focus is on the land battles. The movie, like most Chinese war movies, are based on the true story that really happened, but movie only focused not on the naval engagements, which was the major part of the campaign. For those limited scenes that were about naval engagements, there is the problem of the wrong equipment shown: the gunboats in real life were made in USA, but since they were retired from the service already, gunboats of former-USSR design were used, and no attempts to make them look similar to real thing.
