Reviews

poe426 Back before the Big Bang that changed warfare (i.e.; the invention of the firearm- also know as "the coward's weapon of choice"), the bow and arrow were the weapons of choice- and one of the deadliest bows ever devised was the type of bow used by the Mongolians (which is bent ONE way, then bent BACK, doubling its power). In WAR OF THE ARROWS, we get a sense of what it might've been like to have used (or been shot by) just such a weapon. This is one of the best examples of how slow motion cgi can actually ENHANCE something as INTIMATE as killing with a bow and arrow- and the fx are utilized to their finest, here. The performances are all solid, and the storyline serves its purpose admirably. All around, a bullseye.

parthipan k Its a must watch film especially for archery fans.. Most probably this might be the best archery movie you might have ever seen.Plot is as simple as that,"Elder brother Nam Yi being regarded as traitor's son with archery inherited in his blood becomes the Saviour of his abducted younger sister Ja in during Manchu invasion of Korea.This showcases not only archery but the thriller and the exciting screenplay makes the viewers to sit at the tip of seats. Kudos to the cinematographer and director.Being a Korean periodic movie everybody would be expecting unbelievable fights but what keeps the movie in track is believable sharp archery from both protagonists and antagonists.

Gamma Scalpa An excellent period action movie. Grippingly directed with great cinematography. Kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. The acting was very good though I always feel I'm unable to truly judge this aspect for subtitled movies. Having said that I really connected with the lead despite most other characters appearing fairly shallow.I had the feeling that this movie has a far bigger budget feel for the amount of money that might have actually been spent on it. If that is so, the producers should receive great credit.All in all, if you're a fan of Asian action movies you will enjoy this. If you are unfamiliar with the genre, this will be a great movie to introduce yourself.

TKDLion8 I bought this movie without having seen it. I have only seen a few other Korean movies but there was one that I really liked called Sword in the Moon. Since both were period movies and War of the Arrows looked interesting I decided that I would give it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised at how good this movie was.It started with a powerful scene and then seemed a little boring but only for five or ten minutes. After the movie really got going it kept building momentum right up until the climax. Some parts seem a little unrealistic but overall I was emotionally invested in this movie and enjoyed it quite a bit.
