Talented director Won Shin-yeon has traded serial killers and action for war, and it's probably the best war movie of the year so far for me. The year is 1920, when Korea is under Japanese rule, and a group of Korean resistance fighters are pitted against them and go at each other's throats for the entire film. Story-wise, the film isn’t impressive, but it's more or less a non-stop battle for survival, which I personally prefer. The film has great pacing, familiar faces, spectacular battle scenes, gorgeous visuals, beautiful scenery, and thankfully it’s brutal enough. The scene where the Japanese general cooks a half-living tiger that is still trying to eat him was awesome, and also worth mentioning is the scene where the resistance commander runs in with a machete among the 30 or so soldiers and cuts them to pieces, so that limbs fly and the grass turns red, I was classically screaming with delight. I really enjoyed that. Korea rules. Story***, Action*****, Humor>No, Violence****, Entertainment****, Music***, Visuals*****, Atmosphere****, Suspense***. 8/10.
