I suggest evryone buy this DVD.

Its a Korean film and is the most intense film Ive ever seen.

The acting is superb and the storyline fantastic.

I have it, and that is one great movie. It features the most spectacular fighting scene known to cinema. I never timed it, but it feels like 10 minutes of raw, relentless knucklefighting along a hallway. And it is blissfully void of any kung-fu roundhouse kicks and vitty comments. That scene alone is worth the money!

That movie made me look at hammers in a whole new way.

Love the side scrolling hallway fight.

Thanks for recommending this. I'll add it to my NetFlix que.

I got it from Netflix today and watched 1/2 of it so far and find it enjoyable....I was expecting to see a health bar at the upper right of the screen during the hallway fight, afterall, we got a dotted line-of-sight diagram from hammer to head at one point....

Just wait to you see the end. Very intense.

Another great Asian film is Brotherhood.

Yup it sure was intense and it is a film that would never be produced by our wimp assed movie studios here in the states....I recently saw R-Point too and it is another fine Korean film...I think I'll be exploring more Korean films soon....
