The best war movie I have ever seen. The plot, in its structure, is easily comparable to something like War Horse, which was a huge dud where this was intense, gripping and incredibly well-rounded. South Korean cinema might just be the love of my life. Brilliant.

A must see for the spectacularly staged battle scenes (the overview shots were nothing short of amazing) and its wonderful score (rather intrusive though it is). Je-gyu Kang is, in many ways, Korea's Steven Spielberg - which also entails a fair share of sentiment. Also be sure to seek out his previous, and even better, film: 'Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War'
