Member OpiumKungFuCracker Posted May 9, 2012 Member Share Posted May 9, 2012 Just came out on bluray/dvd today, anyone seen/hunted this movie down yet??? I really really loved Tae Gu Ki, top Korean movies of all time for me, this is no exception... Toward the end of the Korean War, an uneasy ceasfire is ordered, but out on the Eastern front line of the Aerok Hills, in an expanse of land called the Aero-K, fierce fighting continues. A race to capture a stategic point to determine a new border between the two Koreas is the ultimate prize. At the Eastern border stands the "Alligator Company," known to be the best soldiers of the front line. They are the only unit to have survived the worst battle of the war at Pohang. When a South Korean bullet is found in the dead body of a company commander, Lieutenant of Defense Security Command Kang Eun-Pyo is ordered to investigate Alligator Company for the murder. Upon arrival, Kang Eun-Pyo is immediately shocked at the state of the soldiers, the conditions on the front, and the presence of Kim Soo-Hyuk, a former friend he believed to be dead. With a truce promised for years but no end in sight, one man struggles to make sense of a crime in the face of countless lives sacrificed for war.

War is Hell plain & simple! I agree!!! The comrade and brotherhood storyline in this movie as well as the actors were top notch... The lead actor in this movie, Ha-kyun Shin is just great.. I'm used to seeing him play the muted characters like in No Mercy For The Rude and Sympathy Vengeance.. Here he's the starring vehicle and the supporting cast were just outstanding...
