    These Korean anti-Japanese films with the main theme are all over the air. In fact, there is no grand narrative to match. It is just a one-sentence plot after the rambling. After the group portraits are called one by one, no one can stand up, only Song Kanghao. The characters have a sense of struggle to survive in troubled times. Of course, Jin Zhiyun's skills are still good, and the art part is also a bonus item. Maybe it won't be so boring if you condense it a little...

    The rhythm of the war of resistance against Japan is wrong. The narrative has no ups and downs. Even if you fail, you have to move forward, step on the failure and move forward, and eventually you will stand...

    Replacing the Koreans with Chinese in the play is a hot-blooded Chinese anti-Japanese...

    After reading it, I feel that the Korean nation's resistance to Japan is simply a joke, thinking that a few explosions can achieve national liberation? Throughout the period of Japanese occupation, there was not a single decent uprising on the Korean peninsula. At best, they engaged in assassinations and explosions, and then joined the Japanese...

    A story that can take an hour and a half has to drag on for an hour. All the reversals of the plot can be easily guessed. The theme is correct but the expression is backward. Can this really be an...

    Putting aside national parochialism, we have seen anti-Japanese themed movies with more aesthetic value

    It seems that Koreans with strong national pride have also begun to realize the boring and stupidity of boasting. Perhaps for most Chinese, criticizing Koreans is just out of irony, and cursing people for the sake of cursing is not. Deeply understand the fundamental cause of the national arrogance,...

    Film reviews should be written in time

    This is the first time I saw which director made a wartime spy film so dreamy. Gong Yoo's suit was straight and he went to that station. You can take screenshots of each scene to enjoy it for a long time. But what's wonderful is that the director did not shoot the story of a successful hero....
