  [HanCinema's Film Review] "Operation Chromite"
  2016/08/06
  Hak-soo (played by Lee Jung-jae) is a noble South Korean soldier who leads a deep spy unit into Incheon island to uncover vital intelligence regarding whatever defenses, natural or manmade, may make an amphibious attack on the island practical or impractical. Gye-jin (played by Lee Beom-soo) is the at-times comically evil North Korean commander who opposes Hak-soo's efforts. That's the basic outline for "Operation Chromite". The movie is a tale of good versus evil- no context necessary,...More

  [HanCinema's Box Office Review] 2015.11.06 ~ 2015.11.08
  2015/11/09
  Jang Jae-hyeon's "The Priests" clean up at the top... Jang Jae-hyeon's debut feature film "The Priest" entered at the top of the pile by capturing a domineering 62% of the box office pie over the weekend. The local film made its debut last Thursday, and from the 1,088 screens it was allocated managed to attract over 1.4 million filmgoers. Formerly known as "Black Priests", the film has been lightly compared to the iconic "Exorcist" film, and, more locally, the film conjures up images of Park Chan-wook's bloodly vampire film "Thirst". In "The Priests", Kim Yun-seok and Gang Dong-won play two Catholic priests who become involved in a disturbing mystery the can't forsake,...More

  [HanCinema's Film Review] "The Long Way Home"
  2015/10/31
  The time is July, 1953, and the place the western front of the Korean War. Yes, the war is still going on...for some reason. As the opening subtitles note, the Korean War could have ended a few months after it started back in 1950. Not that it's the place of soldiers to question such matters. North Korean soldier Yeong-gwang (played by Yeo Jin-goo) is a teenager with little comprehension of what North Korea even is. Then one random errand leaves Yeong-gwang in a fumbling scramble to do right by the country he barely understands,...More

  "The Martian" isn't going anywhere… Ridley Scott's sci-fi epic, "The Martian", managed to remain at the top of the box office pile without much fuss or competition.

  "The Martian" arrives and conquers... After entering the fray last weekend in pole position, Nancy Meyers' "The Intern" had to take a step back in light of the next big space thriller to come out of Hollywood: "The Martian". Ridley Scott's adaptation of Andy Weir's novel was released in the States earlier this month, and has already grossed over $227 million worldwide, but arrived in Korea last Thursday and was given 1,132 screens to pool from. This epic space thriller has been well-received by critics and cinephiles alike (especially space junkies and science fans), and in Korea close to 1.5 million tickets were sold over its first weekend out,...More

  "The Intern" rises to the top while Ryoo Seung-wan's "Veteran" breaks another record… Nancy Meyers' "The Intern" has dislodged Lee Joon-ik's popular period piece "The Throne" to become the country's new number one. Lee's latest has been sitting pretty at the top for three weeks now, and since its release mid-August it's managed to amass a total tally of 5.5 million admissions, 492 thousand of which came from this past weekend. But a second week in the charts has helped raised Meyer's film to the top in a tightly contested weekend where the podium placements could have gone either way,...More

  Lee Joon-ik's "The Throne" still reigns supreme… For the second week in a row, Lee Joon-ik's timely period piece "The Throne" has claimed the top spot by adding another 1.2 million admissions to its total tally. Lee's depiction of the cruel fate of Prince Sado entered the charts on the 16th, and, with the Chuseok weekend included, now stands at 3.5 million admissions ($23.9 million). "The Throne" had to compete with a string of new releases leading up to Korea's harvest holiday but ultimately managed to capture 36.9% of the box office pie to remain in pole position,...More

  Sol Kyung-gu and Yeo Jin-goo's bromance blooms in 'The Long Way Home'
  2015/09/15, Source
  Flowers bloom even during a war. Although you may feel there's something missing because it is a bromance, not romance between a man and a woman, Sol Kyung-gu and Yeo Jin-goo's comical and impassioned acting performance fill up the gap. Right after they bring laughs in a comical scene, the audience is exposed to a painful agony of a war that a country had to experience. Laughs in a tragedy is always sad and funny at the same time. It isn't that easy to make the audience laugh and smile in turn. First of all, it should be based on a good scenario that maintains the emotional thread throughout the storyline. And of course there should be the strong acting performances by great actors,...More
