Based on real events that occurred in 2007 dubbed the ‘Heuksapa Incident’, this South Korean crime thriller follows a turf war in Seoul that grows between the local Garibong-dong gang and the fearsome Heuksapa gang from China, led by the bloodthirsty Jang Chen. When the police get involved, they cook up a tense and thrilling plan to tackle Jeng and his gang with extreme prejudice… (Dubai International Film Festival)

An excellent action ride and one of the best gang war films I've seen from South Korea. The Black Dragon gang comes to Korea from China to collect money from people who don't pay, and those who don't pay lose an arm or a leg. The local gang don't like that and of course the police, ruled by the absolutely fantastic Ma Dong-Seok (the guy is quite possibly the biggest current Korean star, his upcoming nine films are awesome), and here he takes down almost everyone on KO. Yoon Kye-sang does a very good villain again, he's the only one who can technically punch even though he often uses an axe or a knife. There is a lot of action, almost every moment there is some kind of brawl or someone getting hacked to pieces. The pace is very dynamic, the great visuals are a given, there are plenty of fights, they are more like street fights with knives, axes, baseball bats, but very good and decently brutal. I like that the film looks very real, it is not exaggerated, it does not play for effect, every blow hurt, even me, and when an arm is broken at the you have the feeling that it was really broken. The highlights are definitely the big gang clash in the hotel and the final fight in the toilet (technique vs force), which is begging for a fifth star. In the end I'll give a very strong four stars because I think it lacked a twist or a more interesting story, but otherwise I'm totally satisfied. Asia is having a very successful year. 85%.

Uncompromising bloodshed of street gangs versus a peculiar police unit, which could / should also qualify as a kind of street gang. A straightforward striking and goal-oriented plot, clearly defined characters, a few light moments in the right places and such a frequent clear contact action, which means that the stuntmen must have more roles in it than the actors and ... And that's actually it. No overlaps, no art. But there is no need for stronger evidence that if you know what you are doing, even "a few" perfectly mastered genre elements are enough for perfect fun.
