NeoMaster Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 (edited) Has anyone seen this movie yet? I just picked it up from my blockbuster a week ago and I love this film. I personally recommend it to anyone who either:a) likes quality asian cinema likes war movies ie. Saving Private Ryanc) likes drama moviesd) all the above The basic plot is about two brothers being pulled into the Korean war. One brother risks his life countless times to gain the medal of honour to grant his younger brother freedom home. But to do so he must do selfish things which leads to his comrades being killed which the younger brother despises. It's a really emotional film and I hope someone here picks it up and gives it a try. Here's the website for more info. Tae Guk Gi PS: It's pretty bloody so it's not for the faint of heart.

Jjangthekid Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Yea, I saw this movie mainly because it was a big hit in Korea. My parents borrowed it the day it came out on the video stores. It's pretty intense and I gotta say that Korean movies have come up a long way. Well anyways, hope you enjoyed it. I also recommend "Friend." aka ChinGoo/ ChinGu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMaster Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 I enjoyed it a lot actually. I'm pretty glad I picked up the movie at blockbuster. I like the dubbed english version. It was well done, actor wise and sync wise. The korean language option is kind of annoying in some parts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I'm not much of a war movie fan. but I'd rent it if I saw it around I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Jahovic Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I don't fit any of the criteria and I don't go in for foreign films very much. I'll check it out if I see it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I saw this movie nights ago when I saw it at my local blockbuster. First thing that hit my mind. Finally a god damn movie on the Forgotten War. Second of all. It could of been better, but it's a ok choice for war monglers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoMaster Posted April 7, 2005 Author Share Posted April 7, 2005 Too bad they screwed us with the Game Pass not being available in Canada. Like, it would've been sweet to rent as much games as you want for 30 bucks a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Jahovic Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 (edited) The no late fees thing is utter bullshit They jacked up the rental cost and if you keep the game for too long, you have to pay the entire purchase price.

Gryph Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Blockbuster already had to pay settlement costs because they were sued about their bullshit "No late fees" thing. I don't know if they've changed it or made it more clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
