Stanley Kauffmann The New Republic We can be grateful that a Jang Hun comes along now and then to inscribe a human record. Jun 19, 2013 Full Review Anton Bitel Little White Lies Jang's filmmaking weapons may be utterly conventional, but that does not prevent them from delivering a high-impact payload. Mar 5, 2012 Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post A potent anti-war movie with breathtaking battle sequences. Rated: 3/4 Jan 20, 2012 Full Review Josh Long Battleship Pretension The Front Line succeeds in presenting an emotional war story that speaks to lingering issues within Korea. Mar 16, 2021 Full Review Sean Axmaker Seanax.com The themes and characters are right out of any number of classic war movies, but... the frontline culture, so at odds with military discipline and command, is fascinating. May 19, 2012 Full Review James Plath Movie Metropolis If you like war movies, this one is a dandy. Sure, you'll recognize some of the genre's shopworn conventions, but there are enough unique twists and details to make "The Front Line" memorable. Rated: 8/10 Apr 25, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

hannah s It was very good. one of the saddest i’ve watched. enjoyed it, made me cry many times wish i could have the feeling of watching it for the first time again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Audience Member The best Korean movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A little melodramatic, but there is a similar theme to that of Tae Guk Gi, a tragic fight between brothers. This seems to be a through line in Korean War films that other nations could take note of. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Action-packed must see movie if you love watching war movies, really well done. Steven Speilberg would be impressed... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member 9/8/16 Amazon Streaming Video A really well done war flick with some terrific battle scenes. The story pretty formulaic with war is hell, leaders suck, why are we doing this, etc. but still an intense movie that seems shorter than its 2:13 run time. It does a good job of showing why war is such a waste and how it is so dehumanizing. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member See it...and see it again like I did!
