Did not expect to see a memorable movie like this perfectly acted by the politicians..... maybe the violence is extreme but the thrill will get you to the edge of your seat..... always remember this movie for life and i cannot find any comparison to any action political movie that I watched from 2000 to now......i am not exaggerated for my comments..... this is from the bottom of my heart.......
I wanna say one thing first, It's the first film that created such a cult boom like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)" among South Korean moviegoers. That is enough value for this film in the South-Korean film industry. I will write down a more detailed review later.
Wake up world, wake up to one of the MASTERS of South Korean crime movies: director and writer Kim Sung-su.
This South Korean crime movie should be INSTANTLY (RE)released in the Western cinemas. This kind of cinema one often simply cant find anymore in the Western movie theatres, but the South Koreans keep churning out these crime masterpieces one after the other! Incredible.
What mastery! What gutwrenching human drama. What heinous, low life characters, yet still so humanlike and true to life. What overwhelming, vicious, over the top violence.
I cant believe this incredible crime drama has only gotten 17 reviews on Imdb, while it is one the very best South Korean crime movies that I have seen lately.
The synopsis doesnt begin to cover the explosion of human viciousness which this movie blasts upon us viewers, especially at the very end. Violence breeds more violence. And human depravity breeds more vicious and heinous backstabbing. Wanna witness this jungle of greed and misery in all it's dark "splendor", then please press play and witness ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE...

Asura city's foundations are completely mired in madness, just like the rest of humanity. The only difference is - Asura doesn't bother to hide it. The city has no rules at its foundation except the basest of human nature, exposed. That is its truth, its mystery and its unknown law. What every other city calls "order" is an attempt to impose something comprehensible and workable.
When you realize this, only one things can be worse - that everyone else also realizes this - that all their purpose is full of craziness and at bottom, utterly illogical. Together they bring out the worst in each other. Every diabolical villany is accounted for - in full, shameless display through snarling contempt and nonchalant ultraviolence.
Start at the very bottom of our base nature and progressively work downwards from there into the abyss. Relentlessly finding untraceable paths that are successively worse than the last, leading to only one conclusion.
You wanted to accept everything. Now accept that groups of men are so completely mad, that should their veil of civility be lifted, they are dancing with each in the darkest places of hell. Asura lifts that veil. Asura is a bonfire of all vanities - and the bigger the fire grows - the more darkness is revealed.
Genius yes, because the difference between insanity ahd genius lies in how others accept your insanity. Korean films are 1000 years ahead of Hollywood and 500 years ahead of European cinema.

This film is far better than what they have explained. If you love film-noir, dark and gripping film, then Do watch it, I'm sure you will love it
