antoniocasaca123 I think that the director Je-Kyu Kang gives us a great and exempt argument and is therefore not politically correct and does it in a way that deserves my applause because he reports the war crimes of both sides of the conflict with a huge lucidity. This film had a budget of about 12 million USD, of the highest I have seen in South Korean production, which, at least in this century, has provided us with fantastic, creative and original films, of the most varied genres, made with little money, compared to what goes on in Hollywood. I imagine if this movie were made in the US, the budget would be around $ 100 million. This is just to say that you do not need huge budgets to make great movies. What is needed is the creativity and originality I mentioned above. The South Koreans have been the proof. Oh, by the way, the movie had revenues of about USD 77 Million worldwide.
sachinpunj This is my first ever review. I read reviews before watching them, but never post my review,this time i felt obligated to give my review. I have watched over 180 anime, many English TV series, English movies, so i have seen most of the cliché stuff, things for the mainstream audience, some great masterpieces as well, i watched this movie with no expectations at all and i loved every part of it. It portrayed how war affects not only the soldiers fighting for it but the citizens as well. This movie had great action, drama, music, and most important the story which one could connect with. So don't miss out on this amazing movie and just watch it already.
jessy zaki I am a big fan of war movies, and I was thinking that SAVING PRIVATE RYAN was the best, but i was wrong. In my opinion THE BROTHERHOOD OF WAR surpasses them all. Am I exaggerating?! no.. What makes this movie special-at least for me- is: -so realistic battle scenes and emotions showing horrors of war and not glorifying it like other movies. -dealing not only with war crimes, but also with the government crimes towards its own people. -asking what is patriotism and which bond is stronger;to one's family or to his country? -great cast and smooth, yet powerful background score-reminded me of the same effect of that of BRAVE HEART had on upon me. Some Westerns may think of it as being kinda over-dramatic, but I see it's a part of the Eastern tradition in general, and actually it is justifiable here;the movie is more than some graphics which are very realistic. NOTE: "The Korean War is an obvious example that there is no winner and loser in wars, only losers. There was no peace treaty, only a cease fire"
nain_64 Firstly, I have seen most of the so called greatest movies ever, which includes war movies as well. But only this movie shows one of the best, most realistic and emotional war scenes ever filmed. And YES, Saving private Ryan is not even 10 percent of a good movie when compared to this, if you think that's the only good war movie. This film shows the war scenarios in the most amazing way. You don't have to believe my words for it, just watch it one time and then you gonna remember it forever. Its a fools illusion that only US made films are good, come on US, try and learn some true human feelings from this, because you need it. Love to the team who made this Epic !!
