Director Jo Sung-hee is back this year with 'Space Sweepers', which has gone straight to Netflix after a 1 year hiatus thanks to COVID-19. The first time for Korea to attempt the space-opera style action flick, I gave it the full review treatment over at COF. Check it out below -

I gave this one a watch over the weekend.

It might be 1st Korean sci-fi movie but the movies borrows heavily from other sci-fi movies, there were scenes that reminds me of Serenity, Sunshine, the Fifth Element, and Star Wars and a few others - the battle between the Space Sweepers & the UTS brings back memories of the battle between the Resistance vs The Empire.

With all that said It is a fun movie and I enjoyed it. I actually cares about some of the characters in the movies. Even with the long runtime (2hr & 16 minutes) the movies kept me (us) entertained & didn't bore me (us).
