Though the film definitely cuda been better, it still works as it is. - DirectorByung-woo KimStarsWon-Jin AhnLee Da-witChoi Deok-moonA newsman discovers he's been rigged with a bomb after he has an exclusive interview with a terrorist who blew up a bridge.It felt like one of the most important films that's been made in recent times. It depends on your point of view, how you see Terror.
Although the film doesn't reference to War on Terror directly, it does show a few scenes resembling 9/11. Watch it yourself. - DirectorLee Joon-ikStarsKam Woo-seongJung Jin-youngKang Seong-yeonTwo clowns living in Korea's Chosun Dynasty get arrested for staging a play that satirizes the king.

JacksonWhen Jacob (Asa Butterfield) discovers clues to a mystery that stretches across time, he finds Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.
