Panos Kotzathanasis HanCinema "71-Into the Fire" aims at entertainment, not historic accuracy or realism, and in that fashion, John H. Lee succeeds to the fullest. Mar 4, 2019 Full Review Glenn Heath Jr. House Next Door Propaganda at its finest, classically depicting the sacrifice of valiant youth for the greater national good.

acsdoug D Yeah! Kill them commies! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/17/24 Full Review Audience Member The best Korean movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazingly powerful war movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the most well made Asian / Korean war films ever. I've seen Tai Guk Ki, Frontline and My Way, but this one stands out. Not just a war epic, but it has a very good story. A story of 71 teenagers, who is assigned to hold out against the advancing North Korean army. They are inexperienced, but armed. And it turns out to be one of the most heroic films ever. It's like that film "home alone" combine it with a war epic film. I said that cause they have no combat experiences at all, and they make strategies to set up traps against a battalion of North Korean armies. I was excited bout the climax, about how they end up battling these soldiers. And that villain commander, that dude is bad ass. And to think, this is a true story, a story of young heroes that will be remembered for a long time. A must watch war epic. 4.5/5 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the most well made Asian / Korean war films ever.

I like that althought there is action and a lot of blood it is more focused on the human side, on the students and their strugles of being just kids that can´t be kids, they have to mature quickly and force themselves to face their fears and get involve in a war. Great actings from all of the cast specially Seung Hyun. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
