71: Into the Fire (2010)

One of the most well made Asian / Korean war films ever. I've seen Tai Guk Ki, Frontline, and My Way, but this one stands out. Not just a war epic, but it has a very good story. A story of 71 teenagers, who is assigned to hold out against the advancing North Korean army. They are inexperienced but armed. And it turns out to be one of the most heroic films ever. It's like that film "home alone" combine it with a war epic film. I said that cause they have no combat experiences at all, and they make strategies to set up traps against a battalion of North Korean armies. I was excited bout the climax, about how they end up battling these soldiers. And that villain commander, that dude is badass. And to think, this is a true story, a story of young heroes that will be remembered for a long time. A must watch war epic.

I loved this movie very moving. I thought that the story was rly well done considering it was based on a true piece of history. I also thought the acting was amazing, but TOP is my bias (totaly fangirl)! I am not sure I would be able to watch this again just b/c I love TOP & don't know if I can handle (slight spoiler) watching him die more than once. Other than that I thought it was rly good. The characters r well built (considering the time frame) and even though not much is said b/t ppl there is a silent understanding b/t the characters that was not hard to understand. It was all very interesting and I enjoyed it even though I wanted to cry. OK, I rly didn't want to cry, but it made my heart hurt a little.

Good movie, great actors, and a lot of war. I recomend it to others just b/c of the historical value and maybe it would make ppl think twice about what they r rly doing b-4 they decide to go to war.
