Yes, I can look it up, I was wondering if anyone had seen it or knew about it.

I wonder the same thing. They are going to dub it and make it all hip-hopppity for today's crowd on MTV. Yay? If anybody can give me reviews on this title, I might just buy it for a present for my brother.

Anyone watch that last night?

It was awesome!! Even if it did have the voices of rappers the movie was intense!

Watched it like a year or 2 ago on VCD.
It was all right, not the best, but I guess maybe with the English vocals, it'll be more funnier and better?

I saw this last night... it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be. It was one of those real live anime/comic book kinda crap which i liked... Just mindless fun action.

though i think they could have done a better job telling the story

 

[imprezawrxwagon]

saw it in Korean awhile ago. I do enjoy Asian action comedies and ocmic book based films, so, I liked this movie quite a bit.

 

[HeroOfPellinor]

Story unfolded awkwardly, acting was subpar, fighting scenes were stale (reminded me of Dark City marries The Matrix and has a really boring kid), the dubs were off and uninspired, the score didn't fit well (the rap was fine). I liked it a lot though...for one reason...it was different. The deep voices of the rappers along with the comic book cinematography combined with the fact that it took me more than 20 seconds to explain the plot to my wife when she started watching 3/4 through, made it a unique movie.

I'm easy to please...just bring me something original.

I saw this last night. It was really good...

for the ATOTers who have seen the original: How much better is it than the MTV showing ?

That, and, is there anything else out there similar and as intense?

 

[Nocturnal]

I saw it last night and the two main girls are hotties

 

[Sid59]

it was ok and i didn't find the girls all that attractive. i was ready for it to end about 45 minutes into the movie. moved way to slow.

If you like swordfights, checkout Azumi
For Matrix type stuff, Resurrection of the Little Match Girl

Also
Versus
Battle Royale

not very good. It was slow and the fighting was very uninspired and sloppy compared to other movies. The dubbing sucked too but even if it was good, the movie was still pretty bad.

 

[weirdichi]

Fighting was crap. I expected something along the lines of Stormriders, but it was utter crap. The effects were crap also. Maybe the original is better because of the voices. It seemed as though they tried to rush the movie due to time constraints. The DVD says it's 120mins, while it only showed on MTV for 1.5 hours uninterrupted. Cross my fingers for a better Korean version.
