"Volcano High School" is full of unimaginable action scenes, such as people tossing and jumping in corridors, smashing glass windows, and shooting light bulbs with sharp eyes. These are pictures full of comics. The action scenes of the film can be summarized as "energy fighting" and "powerful martial arts". The opponents sometimes exchange palms, perform acupoints, roll up whirlwinds, etc., reminiscent of the Bruce Lee movies of the 1970s. However, the continuous action of "Volcano High School" utilizes computer stunts, and even the air flow from the bullets is extremely detailed, making the scene richer and more complete.
The best thing about this Korean action movie is its action and stunts. In these two aspects, it can be compared with Hong Kong movies, but it is not unanimously recognized. Because of the excessive use of stunts, there is suspicion of piling up, so the audience's eyes will inevitably be full of complaints after the stunts hurt.
"Volcano High" is a breakthrough in Korean cinema in its bold introduction of history and culture. First of all, a lot of Chinese characters are used in the film, which is a rare phenomenon in Korean films. It cannot but be said that it is a conceptual breakthrough of Korean directors. In addition, the moving of rivers and lakes to campus, the violent suppression of students by teachers, and corporal punishment in the film are actually of practical significance.
