A fairly well-shot war film, but after a while, it feels like something you've already seen, or rather like something that's nice to watch but doesn't really stay with you. The visuals aren't bad at all, but the characters just aren't great. Liam Neeson pretty much saves the day with his presence alone.

I'm actually surprised at how good it was. At first I found the film boring, but from the first big shootout it got my full attention and didn't let up until the end. Action alternated with action, the gunfights are perfectly shot both visually and in terms of setting, they are slightly bloody, I liked the local intransigence where Korean warlords will shoot anyone just for suspicion. Liam Neeson didn't have that big a role here, still a pleasure to see him in the west. I had fun. In places the film reminded me of last year's gem Assassination. 75%.
