I haven't watched it for a long time, and I don't have the urge to watch it. War movies are not my thing, and Korean movies are very typed. So I watched it with no expectations, and I thought it was not bad. It was a masterpiece of Korean commercial films. Although the shadows of many classic films, predictable plot trends, and sensational and funny plots are also quite Hollywood, the war scenes, confrontation tactics and various delicate emotional entanglements between people are not bad, and they are put on the big screen. It should be worth the ticket price. The vast majority of domestic commercial films are really incomparable with South Korea and Japan.
Thanks to Park Sangyan's script to a large extent, although it is not on the same level as "JSA", it brings together the cruelty of war, comradeship, compatriots, homesickness, conspiracy investigation, etc. together in an orderly manner. It's not easy to see without the boring field. And Zhang Xun is obviously more proficient in the control of big scenes and the connection of small details than the previous work "The Righteous Brothers".
