Bereamic Awesome Movie
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Craig Rose Not sure why there are no reviews for this excellent movie. It's the story of two childhood friends Tae-ho and Jong-du growing up after the conclusion of the Korean War.Tae-ho and Jong-du are 18 years old and are struggling to find a way to survive. They start a shop selling stolen army supplies and try and prosper. Many challenges are encounter amongst them mob interference and the befriending the many other orphaned children littered thru the streets all trying to survive.It's a pretty good movie yo, it's got a love interest and this crazy bull whip. If you like people muttering in Korean with English subtitles underneath them, then this is definitely up your alley
