Steel Rain 2

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:)

Since South Korea has obviously become nothing but another puppet state of the zionist, globalist, neoliberal United States, this worldview is reflected more and more in its movie industry as well. Who is the boogey man? Evil "right wing extremist" Japanese. Their leader actually is the one who makes sense, wanting to protect Japan from the evil America influence which brings nothing but depravity, destruction and financial slavery everywhere it takes root. So of course they had to make him an expansionist who wants to reconquer Korea again as well, otherwise the audience would sympathize with him, and we can't sympathize with nationalists, can we? This is a neoliberal movie after all. There is also a nationalist North Korean general who's stance also makes sense until they turn him into a bad guy as well.

I did like the bonding between the North and South Korean leaders and how the American president was portrayed as a disrespectful, tactless, total buffoon who "just wants to make some money", although even that was so overexaggerated and free of nuance that it felt like a stupid liberal comedy sketch and took any remaining seriousness out of the film.

Oh and by the way, the entire story as a whole is also pretty ridiculous, especially to anyone who understands which forces truly run the world. Part 1 was really awesome. This one has nothing to do with. Don't waste your time.

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.

Great analogy of realistic and semi realistic issues. the character representing Trump is hilarious.

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.
