Steel Rain 2

Director use a nice and understanding way to explain a complex situation between these 3 countries. It's add a little humor on these 3 countries leader. Fun, intense to watch movies. Feel fortunate to watch it before the cinema decide to take down in the final weeks. Nothing to pick on, only the North Korea leader is too good looking that can form a K-pop boy group:)

A combination of several things makes this movie entertaining from start to finish. Firstly there is clever biting political satire on the current tensions in Asia and the role of foreign powers. Some of the movie is in English and cleverly incorporates an international element. Next there is laugh out loud comedy involving the personalities of the 3 heads of state S & N Korea and a Trump parody. For the climax there is enough submarine action - too much can be boring. What a pleasant surprise this movie turned out to be. This isn't at all like the first Steel Rain. Jung Woo Sung plays it just right as the S Korean leader. Yoo Yeon-seok plays the N Korean leader and it's great to see him do comedy for a change instead of the villain. Angus MacFayden is quite good as the US President. I don't get the negative reviews - this is a comic masterpiece.

Since South Korea has obviously become nothing but another puppet state of the zionist, globalist, neoliberal United States, this worldview is reflected more and more in its movie industry as well. Who is the boogey man? Evil "right wing extremist" Japanese. Their leader actually is the one who makes sense, wanting to protect Japan from the evil America influence which brings nothing but depravity, destruction and financial slavery everywhere it takes root. So of course they had to make him an expansionist who wants to reconquer Korea again as well, otherwise the audience would sympathize with him, and we can't sympathize with nationalists, can we? This is a neoliberal movie after all. There is also a nationalist North Korean general who's stance also makes sense until they turn him into a bad guy as well.

I did like the bonding between the North and South Korean leaders and how the American president was portrayed as a disrespectful, tactless, total buffoon who "just wants to make some money", although even that was so overexaggerated and free of nuance that it felt like a stupid liberal comedy sketch and took any remaining seriousness out of the film.

Oh and by the way, the entire story as a whole is also pretty ridiculous, especially to anyone who understands which forces truly run the world. Part 1 was really awesome. This one has nothing to do with. Don't waste your time.

This movie is hilarious, despite being heavily caricatural. Much better than what I expected. Better understood if you keep an eye on East Asian geopolitics.

I'm a huge fan of South Korean cinema and can appreciate cultural differences but Steel Rain 2: Summit is just garbage, complete and utter garbage. A harebrained geopolitical scheme with stereotypical characters and below average acting. But what really ruins this movie is the portrayal of the American president. I have no problem with Trump being mocked, I can understand the sentiment, but the US president in Steel Rain 2 is a pitiful, uninspired Trump caricature that adds nothing to the story arc, it has no comedic relief function, it's just burlesque, in the middle of a movie otherwise trying to be a serious political thriller, everyone else is trying to infuse gravitas in their lines, with varying success. It's like if Thirteen Days had Jerry Lewis scenes sprinkled on it, unwatchable. Let's just hope Deliver Us From Evil lives up to the hype, Steel Rain 2: The Summit is as bad as they come and when you're about half way in even the title assumes a different, lowbrow comedy connotation.
