Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
what the film lacks in depth it makes up for in Hong Kong-style punch, with vivid cinematography and powerfully choreographed action.
– Janice Page,
Boston Globe,
3 Mar 2006
fresh:
The President's Last Bang comes off as all too ridiculously believable.
– Ted Fry,
Seattle Times,
9 Dec 2005
fresh:
Although a tad long-winded and plodding, it's vigorously acted and persuasive, leaving the viewer to suspect that Im's account, drawn from historical records, could be pretty close to the truth.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
30 Nov 2005
fresh:
This meticulously well-made picture is disarmingly funny at times ... but also subdued and straight-faced, with one eye planted on 1979 and the other on the violent student demonstrations looming in the distance.
– Scott Foundas,
L.A. Weekly,

fresh:
Im Sang Soo is, film by film, challenging the way modern South Koreans think and behave.
