Review of Welcome to Dongmakgol (2005) by Andrew K — 22 May 2010
Totally and utterly fantastic, It combines humour, pathos, Drama and mixed with top acting, top photography and top drama. If you are a patriotic American this film may not be to your taste, a very anti-war and very anti-aggression film which will melt your heart, always mesmerising and compelling to watch.
Basically and without giving the story away, three opposing sides in the Korean war somehow come together in a mountainside village full of happy and content people who do not know what a gun is let alone have any aggression. The rest you will have to find out for yourselves, you really must see this gem of a film, you will not regret it or forget it, I promise!
Ps....This somehow is classed as a comedy, while it is very funny in places, it is not a comedy, class it as a War/Drama/Comedy!
