In One Word – Horrid
Are you serious? Was I watching a film that was supposed to be a Korean war drama, and equally started like the one, full of gore, realistic battle scenes and shocking realism of being shot and mutilated. Sigh, nay, it only started like this. Sadly, the exciting story of a secret document lost and stolen and found turns into a well, a very silly generic comedy with childish performances, exaggerated facial expressions, terrible dialog, horrid plot and stupid ideas. I could not believe my eyes. A very decent drama got onto a silly C-rate comedy flick, and then at the end it tried to get serious again, alas, all the potential was lost already.
Tragic comedy.
Many Korean movies give their characters comical introductions, regardless of the film’s genre. ‘The Long Way Home’ is no different. However, this would have worked much better as a comedy altogether, as some of the serious moments felt out of place in a film that was told mostly in a humorist narrative. As a result, even the impressive battle scenes had little emotional impact.The film’s comical moments are really funny, revolving around the misadventures of a North Korean soldier, and a South Korean soldier. The South Korean soldier was to retrieve a Top Secret document from North Korean soldier, Kim Young-Gwan (Yeo Jin-gu) Funny moments arise ever so often due to their confinement in a tank. I loved the young, incompetent, and somewhat dysfunctional Kim Young-Gwan. There were also some beautiful bonding moments between the two, despite them being enemies.
As funny as the movie was, you’ll be an emotional mess by the time the credits roll. In general ‘The Long Way Home’ was yet another enjoyable South Korean movie.
