A very interesting space movie
The director tried hard for perfection in every shot. The storyline was good. Visual effects are just like or sometimes better than movies like Gravity Or Martian. Actors without overacting performed their part of jobs. After all it was very informative in the background also. Throughout the film suspend, pain, joy and courage was maintained. At last I must mention that light, sound, camera and music were also outstanding. Wish to get more from that team.
I enjoyed the film from the beginning to the end. There was no space to overlook any scene. Some very beautiful places on earth, mainly South Korea were captured beautifully. Some high resolution shots of Moon were also found interesting. - ryanmo-35178 - 25 October 2023
The Martian in Korea
The trailer of this movie is just so good! Never imagine that the graphic design of a Korean movie can be so attractive. The story is about the explosion of the moon by 3 astronauts. When they were in the space, the spaceship was attacked by moving stars and 2 senior were killed. The remaining young one was determined to finish the job. However, it must be done by the scientist who created the ship, and he is the friend of the remainders father! He also needs to seek help from his ex wife who is the management of NASA. With the help of many people, though the young man was dropped to the back of the moon, he finally escaped! The story is typical but u won't think u are watching a Korean movie. Well done ~ - ramkoil - 8 September 2023
Cringworthy and embarassing
Train to Busan, Flu are two very good Korean movies. There are plenty of good Korean movies out there. This one is not one. It can not be taken seriously. The story is highly flawed. The lead actor was simply not qualified for the role. He was suited for a romance melodrama. The lead Role also was highly flawed. An army Seal and Astronaut panicking crying losing control etc... No one in Korea Space agency seemed to have the right character to manage any emergency. To make it more embarrassing right at the beginning they are begging NASA for help. Have some self reliance national pride and dignity! Every major news event had to be repeated in English to be given credibility and importance. It seems unless the event is repeated in US news is not worthy.
The acting is bad plot is well unwatchable, special effect is good if you forget laws of physics.
