This is a Royal Navy movie, but details the escape of the HMS Amethyst from Communist Chinese forces on the Yangtze River in 1949. The battle sequences are fantastic and I always thought the drama of the event was riveting.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find it in a USA format in the years intervening but if you can find it (I know it was on TCM some years ago), it's well worth the time to watch.
