This Korean movie is going to rock the house when it gets released here in July. Check out the trailer!

And yeah, it's a "Korean western." But it works! |

what makes me double excited for this film is that the word is Yongsan CGV will have it subtitled in English at certain times so foreigners can actually see it in theatres.
Aaaasssssaaaaa! |

I have a man crush on Song Kang-Ho. Any movie with him in it is generally pretty cool.

Then you should definitely not miss 놈놈놈... Song Kang-ho's performance blew me away. He is funny as hell in this movie. |

I like most of the Korean films I've seen. I'm going to be watching a lot more too for study purposes.
The only Korean movie that let me down was "Oldboy". It was good, but not great, and really not my cup of tea. |

This movie looks like it's going to rock. I thought that I'd give up on Korean movies after seeing Old Boy and that horrible D-War, but this movie has potential. |

copy cats,
all they did was copy Leone and his style, put in asian actors, lame, really lame.
Sergio Leone (January 3, 1929 � April 30, 1989) was an Italian film director.
Leone is well-known for his spaghetti western films and his style of juxtaposing extreme close-up shots with lengthy long shots and original music soundtracks. His most well-known movies include The Man With No Name trilogy (which consists of A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), Once Upon a Time in the West and Once Upon A Time in America. |

No, your argument is lame. You're blaming the movie for copying Sergio Leone, when it's well known that Leone was in turn copying Akira Kurosawa. |
