'Unbroken' gets China release date

Angelina Jolie's war drama 'Unbroken' will open in China on January 30.
The movie, about Olympian Louis Zamperini and his experiences as a prisoner of war (POW) in WWII, looks sure to be a hit in China, said the Hollywood Reporter.
The response on the Chinese microblogging website to the news the movie would be screened was overwhelmingly positive.
"Welcome to the screening of Unbroken in China. This film is boycotted by Japanese right-wing activists. It is rare to show the Japanese inhumane treatments of prisoners of the war. All Chinese should support this film," wrote one commentator, Mujiang 56.

Ouran Caomu Xiang wrote: "Japan should admit its inhumane behavior during the war,"
"All films which are boycotted by our enemy should be supported by the Chinese. Let the little Japanese go to hell," said Kongzi Zhishu.
Sino-Japanese ties have long suffered from what Beijing sees as Japan's failure to make amends for brutal occupation of parts of China in the 1930s and 1940s.
The movie details the gruesome experiences of American POWs in prison camps at the hands of Japanese captors.
