Great Korean film about the Korean War
25 July 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Film of war, or at least mainly of war, as it cleverly mixes with the right doses, other ingredients and denotes in a concrete and intelligent handfuls of intellectualism, individualism, political and social ideology (which I still have to admit very truthful) but ... without exceeding or falling into simplistic rhetoric. Some sequences are quite violent and crude, such as suicide with the gun of a partisan, or the killing of a boy partisan (seriously wounded) by a companion The film is very long, lasting more than hard hours, a film that can be a real building block for those who might want a quick predominantly of war / action movie, so I feel compelled to recommend it only to those who not only have patience, but also curiosity and desire to discover and to acculturate as the film in question, is based on a memoir of Tae Lee, and then for obvious reasons, is based on true events and of which this film adaptation is considered FULLY failed. The location, for example, rarely (and I kid you not) in a Korean movie I've seen so used properly ... give the viewer the feeling of being there to fight and survive together with partisans What else to say?

I consider myself a vital film that has clear links and similarities Piagol and that "highlights" once again the supporters of North Korea as people and not as the personification of evil, and we see a good evolution, beginning with the 'initial enthusiasm for the struggle that aims liberation, and then transformed gradually into a struggle for survival, which is one of the most impressive parts of the film. A Sunk-Kee Ahn almost perfect and partly.
