Review of R-Point (2004) by Noname — 25 Mar 2013
Solid South Korean horror film about a group of South Korean soldiers searching for a missing patrol in Vietnam in 1972. It's quite enjoyable, with some creepy moments - mysterious soldiers disappear into the grass, the men are plagued by eerie radio messages.
As a war film, however, it borrows a little too heavily from others in the genre. There are moments clearly echoing Full Metal Jacket and Saving Private Ryan. The disparity between the serious leads and the comic performances of the supporting characters also gave the film a slightly uneven tone.
Nevertheless, a decent addition to the genre.
