The film is great! It is not as great as Joint Security Area or Swiri, but it has its unique story. It shows a great deal of Japanese and Korean tension if history changed. Some tension still exists today. I am Korean and feel that this film shows a great moral that influence has its power. The influence of the Japanese power on Koreans changed their (Korean) thoughts. The Koreans forgot their own heritage, but the underground movement (Hureisenjin) wanted to revive Korean culture. The ideals presented in the film are great! The film could have been better, but for Korean cinema: the visual effects were great for a Sci-Fi Action Film.
