Gangcheolbi 2: Jeongsanghoedam

Top shelf cinematography and directing. Acting was on point and convincing. Sets and score amazing. My issue was mainly some plot and technical issues as well as the overly long runtime. Thankfully the pacing was decent, but the film needed about 15-20 mins trimmed off. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

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:)

Sounds nice and cosy, but when the cabin is just 3 square meters and the food taste salty and raw, and the drinking water taste like spill, and that it is the us, the north korean and south corean president crammed togwther, it has to be an interesting bait for all of you...

this syory and plot is like a spy film from the cold war, its threats are thrown east and wets and north too and comes flying back like an australian bat out of hell. its in fact an unbelievable story about factual historical truths, and the scenario of threats could very well be played out like this.

the acting are as usually flawless, even the american actors delivers to make an korean cinema audience laugh out loud, and in fact the behavioural way of preciding are just like an actual one, the red tie proofs that.

so if you like political strategy on the brink of war between china, u.s., s.korea, n.korea and japan over a small group of dodko island then have a go for steel rain 2. its a cool funny but also very actual take of current ways of conducting politics in the far eastern part of the world. a big recommend from the grumpy old man.

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.

I enjoyed every minute of this movie.. It was great.. Better writing.. The cinématography was great, it was perfect.. For the ppl who didn't like it.. It's just a movie guys.. Fictional story, characters.. Just enjoy
