Just the PRIDE of ASIA ...

Rating: 10/10 (24 September 2004)

Two words, "THE BEST !". Two thumbs --- up !!!
This war movie probably the most success or should I say the most outstanding war movie I have ever seen. It is just comparable or even better to some of the Made-In-Hollywood war movies. The director Je-gyu Kang simply put this movie to the top of Asia region.
This Korean war misery movie is based on the story of two brothers getting themselves in between the war. The elder brother, Jin-Tae (Jang Dong-gun) always being protective and try to get his little brother Jin-Seok (Won Bin) our of the war. As a result, WAR appear as one kind of drugs ... that slowly makes Jin-Tae addicted and therefore they reach to a "no-turning-back" sequence.
As to me, this war movie is the best ! The pride of ASIA and to show the world the ability of Asia's films !
Storyline : 4 1/2 out of 5 A little trouble here, whether u agree wiv me or not ... this two brothers relationship is truly unacceptable ... perhaps cannot be found in this modern world anymore .... *just kidding ... just simply too fantastic !!! Director also bring out the most emotion scenes of the brothers but still strongly binded to the history background.
Sound : 4 1/2 out of 5 ... nothing to say for an Asia movie
Pictures/Camera : 5 out of 5 I cannot forget the shattered/shaky screening during the war. It prevents me to see terrible and horror wounds !!!
Acting : 5 / 5 I can see the chemistry works between the two brothers, Won Bin and Jang Dong-Gun and of course within their family. To be honest, I used 2 tissues when I was in the cinema !!!
Extra : 5 out of 5 The actors is just great !!! Won Bin + Jang Dong-Gun !!!
Overall : 5 out of 5 .
You will regret if you miss it !!!
