PRODUCTION NOTES:
Why are they assassins? People hate as much as they love someone. But when their hatred reaches its limit, sometimes they look for someone who can kill that person. The person who they search for is what we call an 'assassin'.
"Guns & Talks" is about people whose jobs are to kill a person for someone else. This film is also about the people who hire them and the people who won't stop until they're locked up.
Even though the story is set on the backdrop of 'a society where assassins are needed and exist,' the killers in "Guns & Talks" are a far cry from the ones typically found in Hollywood movies. They are professional about their job and flawless in every detail, but ironically, they're more sincere and warm-hearted than the common people of everyday life.
Not only is "Guns & Talks" full of gunslinging action and big explosions, it's also a black comedy that encompasses wit, dark humor, and social messages. It's an adrenaline rush and a barrel of laughs at the same time.
Dynamic and speedy action on an impressive scale.
Combined with Director Jang Jin's talent of encompassing wit and dark humor in his scripts, "Guns & Talks" also captivates viewers with its dynamic action sequences and stunning visuals.
Over 800 extras were filled inside the LG Art Center for the film's climax. The building was transformed into the 'Opera House' where the assassins are confronted with their toughest mission ever. Other action scenes include specially-made miniatures, explosives, thrilling car chases, and the use of a flying cam to generate the feel of a large-scaled Hollywood blockbuster.
For the film's climax at the Opera House, professional set designers and real theatrical performers worked hand in hand to produce the look of an immense "Hamlet" play. While we're immersed in the play's visuals, the assassins launch their clandestine operation in what is one of the most breath-taking action scenes ever produced. |
