Bichunmoo - A Saga de um Guerreiro (2000)

Bichunmoo is the second ever Korean sword flick I have watched. I was also attracted to the film as I heard it was based on a popular comic. I'll try to do this review without spoilers. What I loved about this film is the vibrant cinematography, colours and action sequences. The soundtrack is also pretty good. Compliments the movie well. I found the storyline pretty average though. Jin Ha and Su Lie are childhood friends that get separated through a series of circumstances. Many year later the kind Jin Ha turns up as an assassin... The story and the ending has my head scratching. Something I have felt at the end of most Korean sword movies that I've watched to date. It's like the heroes deliberately go out of their way to make poor decisions that lead to sad endings, LOL. At the end of the movie, I could have cited many different choices that our heroes could have made... I'm repeating myself here in other reviews too, but this is a common feature in Korean sword flicks it seems... I'll leave it at that. Is it worth a watch? definitely yes due to it's awesome soundtrack and the way the movie is presented. Is it the best movie ever? Nope...
