Anybody see it?
I rented it the other day. It's another Korean film. This one is set in 1375.
This is the period when the Yuan (pronounced as U.N. only say it as one word) and Ming are battling for control of China. The Korean Koryo Dynasty sends a peace delegation to the winning Ming. Shit happens and it goes downhill from there. (But if it didn't, it wouldn't make a good movie now would it?
)
Some very good cinematography and much like the movie Tae Guk Goo the Koreans aren't shy about being a bit graphic. Also it's done in Korean with English subtitles, though you can choose English too. But that loses something.
I watched it, or rather had it on in the background, yesterday playing English and it looked pretty good. I'll play it in Korean today or tomorrow and if it's as good as I think it's going to be it'll be on my "must buy" list.
