Korra N Feb 13 It's not bad, but some odd writing & deliveries make this war film a bizarre affair that's also quite stunning. See more 02/01/2023 I actually could not stand that interpretation voice overs so it’s tough to rate 2.0 See more 11/12/2020 Poor verging on embarrassing drivel See more 08/11/2020 Neither horrific nor particularly memorable... Neeson's acting falls short in this one. Woefully short See more 12/20/2019 Admit it, Western eyes are so ignorant of any Korean perspective of the Korean war that this simple classic war epic is at minimum, educational. If graded in relation to our absolute ignorance, then this gets an A+ as a Beginning Course in understanding the Korean War, despite poetic license or outright inaccuracies. Although not in the same rhythm as our requisite, to the point of banally trite, neo-nihilistic, and depressingly anti-hero laden, filmic genre that we fawn over with high reviews, the film is, by comparison, almost perfectly imperfect, well made despite immense obstacles, such as the challenge in including a large American Viewpoint within this Korean Motion Picture. One sees heroism and fighting against immense odds, and the viewer comes away with increased knowledge of one of the most important events in 20th Century History. Despite this, Rotten Tomatoes gives this film a 33% and Spider Man 90% and Iron Man 94% and Kill Bill Volume II 84%. Somebody, please, gag me with a spoon. Anyway, setting all that aside, and despite its imperfections, I found the film informative, emotionally moving, and catalytic in reminding me, although a student of Asian Culture and History, how little I, and most Americans, really know about Korea and, specifically the subject of this film, the Korean War. 4.5 Stars.
