David Ehrlich indieWire There’s good fun to be had in watching so many limbs get hacked off for the better part of two hours, but Director Kim can only dismember so many body parts before he starts to lose track of his movie’s spine. Rated: B- Oct 4, 2024 Full Review JK Sooja Common Sense Media Not entirely historically accurate either, Uprising clearly treats its story with a modern action sensibility, right up to almost playing modern music during some of the climactic action scenes. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Kate Sánchez But Why Tho? A Geek Community The choice of culture, history, and sins in one person’s life and personal connections makes Uprising (2024) more than just another movie in the robust sageuk genre. It stands out for all the right reasons. Rated: 8/10 Oct 14, 2024 Full Review Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut Uprising does not hold back and I am so glad it didn’t. It’s a watch-worthy experience from start to finish. If you love Joseon Dynasty dramas, this is a treat. Rated: 4/5 Oct 13, 2024 Full Review Casey Chong Casey's Movie Mania Park Chan-Wook-produced historical drama features well-staged sword fighting but uneven storytelling. Rated: 3/5 Oct 12, 2024 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com If the film lacks subtlety, nuance, and psychological depth, it makes up for it with intense fight scenes, colorful hand-to-hand choreography, and some isolated and welcome bursts of humor.

Sam A Here we have a Korean Jim that shows a historical triumph from its characters with some great direction. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review Jamias J It’s fun to watch and has all the essentials of a good film. While the plot isn’t groundbreaking, it’s engaging enough to keep me invested for two hours. The actors deliver solid performances, and the fight sequences are well-executed. I’m hoping for a part 2! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Bill P This was a lot of fun. It is a combination historical epic and martial arts movie out of Korea. There was quite a lot of gore, so be forewarned if that is not your cup of tea. The movie had a lot plot twists and the storyline was pretty very interesting. I liked how the director broke the movie up into segments. The martial arts scenes were good and they had one scene on the beach where they managed to get all the main characters fighting each other at the same time, which was pretty rad. I got exposed to and learned some Korean history too! This was a surprisingly good movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Guerra e Revolta Assistido: 12-10-24 Elenco: @dw_kang18 @si.micael0203 @jungminpark87 @70csw @knuababoda96 @kimshinrock Modelo: #guerra #drama #ação Duração: 2h 6m Ano: 2024 Minha opinião: Um filme muito bem produzido, uma estória, enredo, produção, efeitos, CGI, tudo muito bem executados e produzido. Parabéns. A melhor representação esta com Cha Seung-won que interpreta um rei muito mal e carrasco. Um homem tão mal que tortura a todos ao seu arredor, não tem misericórdia do povo e que cria seu próprio filho e na hora da punição usa crianças escravas para a penitência. E onde nasce uma amizade entre o aristocrata e um escravo. Mas isso muda quando ele foge e é capturado novamente até o dia que são dominados pelos japoneses e tudo é destruído e o rei foge. Cheon se passa de comandante do exercito e passa comandar um grupo contra os japoneses e assim vão vencendo. Mas o destino faz o 2 se cruzarem novamente mas agora o príncipe cheio de ranco, magoá e vingança pois acredita que Cheon matou sua mulher e filho. Toda esta vingança também uma boa atuação Jung-min Park. Até que ao final reconhece a verdade. Roteiro e enredo parabéns por esta produção. E atuação dos atores. Vale apena assistir? Sim com certeza, um dos melhores filmes que assisti este ano. Nota: 9 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Gregory L Another excellent production from South Korea! It has plot twists and direction that is innovative and truly groundbreaking. Fantastic stuff! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Will M Another absolute diamond movie from South Korea. perfect character development interwoven into an emotional, dramatic, epic and action packed historic storyline with majestic fight sequences, hinting on god-like while staying grounded and realistic, an extraordinary acheivement Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review Read all reviews
