Gangcheolbi 2: Jeongsanghoedam

Director use a nice and understanding way to explain a complex situation between these 3 countries. It's add a little humor on these 3 countries leader. Fun, intense to watch movies. Feel fortunate to watch it before the cinema decide to take down in the final weeks. Nothing to pick on, only the North Korea leader is too good looking that can form a K-pop boy group:)

The story happened in a world similar but different to one we live. So if you can put aside what you know about the leader of the USA, N Korea, and S Korea, then the story makes sense.

The lead actors were great. Supporting actors also did a job. The fight scenes were perfectly executed and convincing. The message was clear. Excellent directing. I totally enjoyed the 2 hours.

Again, you don't need to watch Steel Rain One in order to this movie. They are two different stories. This one is not a sequel. And I like this one better. So go for it.

Top shelf cinematography and directing. Acting was on point and convincing. Sets and score amazing. My issue was mainly some plot and technical issues as well as the overly long runtime. Thankfully the pacing was decent, but the film needed about 15-20 mins trimmed off. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

Sounds nice and cosy, but when the cabin is just 3 square meters and the food taste salty and raw, and the drinking water taste like spill, and that it is the us, the north korean and south corean president crammed togwther, it has to be an interesting bait for all of you...

this syory and plot is like a spy film from the cold war, its threats are thrown east and wets and north too and comes flying back like an australian bat out of hell. its in fact an unbelievable story about factual historical truths, and the scenario of threats could very well be played out like this.

the acting are as usually flawless, even the american actors delivers to make an korean cinema audience laugh out loud, and in fact the behavioural way of preciding are just like an actual one, the red tie proofs that.

so if you like political strategy on the brink of war between china, u.s., s.korea, n.korea and japan over a small group of dodko island then have a go for steel rain 2. its a cool funny but also very actual take of current ways of conducting politics in the far eastern part of the world. a big recommend from the grumpy old man.

I'm a huge fan of South Korean cinema and can appreciate cultural differences but Steel Rain 2: Summit is just garbage, complete and utter garbage. A harebrained geopolitical scheme with stereotypical characters and below average acting. But what really ruins this movie is the portrayal of the American president. I have no problem with Trump being mocked, I can understand the sentiment, but the US president in Steel Rain 2 is a pitiful, uninspired Trump caricature that adds nothing to the story arc, it has no comedic relief function, it's just burlesque, in the middle of a movie otherwise trying to be a serious political thriller, everyone else is trying to infuse gravitas in their lines, with varying success. It's like if Thirteen Days had Jerry Lewis scenes sprinkled on it, unwatchable. Let's just hope Deliver Us From Evil lives up to the hype, Steel Rain 2: The Summit is as bad as they come and when you're about half way in even the title assumes a different, lowbrow comedy connotation.
