Steel Rain 2

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.

The story happened in a world similar but different to one we live. So if you can put aside what you know about the leader of the USA, N Korea, and S Korea, then the story makes sense.

The lead actors were great. Supporting actors also did a job. The fight scenes were perfectly executed and convincing. The message was clear. Excellent directing. I totally enjoyed the 2 hours.

Again, you don't need to watch Steel Rain One in order to this movie. They are two different stories. This one is not a sequel. And I like this one better. So go for it.

Great analogy of realistic and semi realistic issues. the character representing Trump is hilarious.

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.

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:)
