 Very fun epic historical action movie. Hands down the best part is the end when they finally fire the hwacha. Having seen one of these beasts in a museum, I've always wanted to know what it must have been like to actually fire one, let alone several.
This movie is more than just gratuitous hwacha action, there is a really good story behind it about the making of the hwacha and all the danger, court intrigues, and sword fights that went along with it. The excellent story and top notch acting really glues the story together and makes it an excellent film. If you've ever wanted to know what would happen if somebody fired hundreds of rocket-propelled arrows at you at the same time, this movie will answer it. |
