Yeonpyeong haejeon

I absolutely fell in love with the characters, and how they interacted with one another. The film was a little slow moving in the beginning as we get to know the characters, but it was all good. The climatic battle scene was hard-hitting and quite emotional. A maritime war movie well done!

Found this movie while surfing for something to watch.

Korean language with English subtitles.

It was a gripping and entertaining movie to say the least.

Well worth the watch.

Based on true events and a lasting legacy to those who perished that day.

Definitely leaves you looking for those kleenex at the end to wipe those tears.

As with any movie there are gaffs that nitpicking people will point out. So what?

This movie delivers across many fronts and is definitely guaranteed to not be a disappointment.

With all the drivvle coming out of hollyweird these days, pleasure your mind with a good movie like this.

This is a realistic tragic story of an attack on a South Korean ship by the North. It's not a heroic battle type war movie. It's actually a massacre at sea which is unusual to see on screen. There is a rather slow part showing the background of the characters. During the attack it's hard to distinguish who is who sometimes. Bad directing. Still the story is quite moving because of the tragic loss of life for such a frustrating conflict.

Caught this on Netflix streaming, while I had "nothing better to do;" and, boy, am I glad I did. "Northern Limit Line" is, clearly the most authentic movie about military life since "We Were Soldiers"; and it the most the most authentic film about shipboard life since "Das Boot", but a lot more entertaining. Based on a two incident, what would be called a "clash" by a news reader in a paragraph on a "Nightly News," "Nothern Line Limit" is, alternately, suspenseful, exciting, grueling and, ultimately, touching. Very well written, directed, photographed, acted and scored, "Northern Limit Line" also contains the longest modern naval warfare sea battle I have seen. Hollywood could certainly learn from South Korea about how to film a sea battle. My only slight quibble is the editing. One or two sequences end abruptly, disorienting the viewer for an instant. The movie could also use a slight trimming, particularly the "port departure sequence" on the day of the battle.

Inexplicably, I could not enjoy "Northern Limit Line" on my home theater system. For some reason, the title does not appear on the Netflix "Search" menu on my Roku. Too bad, because the sea battle cries out for a big screen and Surround sound. I give "Northern Limit Line" a "9".

Extremely displeased that both Japan and South Korea would act as hosts for the 2002 World Cup, the government of North Korea is determined to tarnish these athletic games at all costs. So in order to do that they decide to ambush a South Korean gunboat named Chamsuri 357 in the Yellow Sea. This film essentially covers that battle but first devotes some time developing some of the characters involved in the conflict with one key sailor by the name of "Park Dong-Hywok" (Hyun-Woo Lee) featured most prominently. Other notable characters include the commander of the boat "Captain Yoon Young-Ha" (Mu-Yeol Kim) and a shipmate of Park Dong-Hyeok by the name of "Staff Sergeant Han Sang-Kook" (Goo Jin). Now as far as the overall movie is concerned I thought that the director (Hak-Sun Kim) did a reasonably good job in setting the stage which greatly increased the emotional impact of the human component at the end. On the other hand, I thought that the actual battle scene was much too prolonged and I likewise didn't care for the manner in which the sporting events were so randomly mixed in either. In any case, I thought that this was a good film for the most part and have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
