A monstrous lizard domiciled in the Han River terrorizing its residents didn't do much to stimulate my curiosity, but boy was I glad I saw this movie. It's just a damn well made movie on all levels, it has suspense, good character development, enough for viewers to empathize with the characters, must viewing if you fancy giant lizards smashing, eating everything in sight. Only shortcoming this movie has at no fault of the director is the the lack of budget that is conspicuously apparent as you watch the movie.

Director: Kang Je-kyu | Stars: Jang Dong-Gun, Won Bin, Eun-ju Lee, Kong Hyeong-jin
Votes: 41,071 | Gross: $1.11M
I was in awe in my 1st viewing of this movie by its sheer production level as I was equally taken away by its dramatic turn of events that were impressively told. Two brothers lives are gravely disturbed by the Korean war, and as the war proceeds, our insight into how truly atrocious wars are to mankind becomes evident, as it is poetically depicted through the family of two brothers. The battle scenes are reminiscent of "Saving Private O'Ryan" as well as "Band of Brothers", but in my opinion you will relate to this movie more due to its focus on a family which we can all identify with

Votes: 216,226 | Gross: $0.01M
Based on a true story of unsolved serial murders from the mid 80's. This movie is as much about incompetency of police officers as it is about the murders. Two aspects of this movie will fuel you with anger, 1st being the cops that are devoid of intelligence, integrity, and moral scruples, 2nd the psychotic killer was never captured. Success of this movie is greatly owed to two very acclaimed actors in Korea, Kang Ho Song does bring some levity in this intense movie, his comedic genius does not disappoint; his counterpart Kwang Rim Kim also does an excellent job as a frustrated city cop doing his best to cope with unorthodox, corrupt countryside cops. The residues of horrific thoughts lingered as I walked out of the theater as I was thinking about the killer never being caught!
