  [HanCinema's Film Review] "The Showdown": A Loveless Triangle of Blood and Blades
  2011/12/24,
  After last week's review of Kim Han-min's "Arrow, The Ultimate Weapon" I felt a sudden craving for some more historical action. I came across Park Hoon-jeong-I's "The Showdown" and thought it would be just the sort of flick that would satisfy my recent obsession with bows and swords. The film further intrigued me when I saw that Park also wrote the screenplay for "The Unjust" and "I Saw the Devil", two other great films from 2010. While not as flashy or adrenaline packed as "Arrow, The Ultimate Weapon", "The Showdown" has a darker taint that is psychologically driven and framed,...More

Park Chan-wook's "Stoker" and Kim Ji-woon's "The Last Stand" are produced by Hollywood-based companies while Bong Joon-ho's "Snowpiercer" and Ryoo Seung-wan's "In Berlin" (working title) are to be co-productions,...More

  [HanCinema's Film Review] Putting the 'Han' in Korean Cinema: Meta-narratives and Cultural Identity
  2011/11/05,
  Where are Korea's happy endings? If you have ever watched a Korean film you will know that they don't always conclude as they might have done if produced by Hollywood. The characters and their stories seem to be influenced by an invisible force that marks a film as typically "As One". From its melodramas to revenge thrillers, there is something tragic and constant driving the Korean film culture, but what exactly? How can one begin to understand Korean cinema in its entirety, as a product of cultural influences and collective consciousness? The exclusively Korean notion of 'Han' might provide some clues as to why Korean cinema has produced the type of films it has,...More
