12.12: The Day

A historical movie about the coup d'etat 12/12-79, that ended one more of the socalled ''republics'' of south korea, a film that for ordinary people shows what goes wrong when you have far too many star spangeled and salated generals, brigadeers, colonels and majors reigning over large military units on a spot of land smaller than california, and the consequence when they point their weapons at each other, cause some of them cant stand the urge of not climbing further in the ranks, other than becoming head of state... its a well made film, aka typical south korean thrillerdrama, where there a so many actors in the lead cast making it hard to differ each actor from the others. Had to find the upper and lower rank of military insignia map on wikipedia in the end to differ whos who. But its a film with a nerve, a bit complicated in the start if you are a virgin to s.k. Politics and armed forces and all the republics that has passed since 2nd world war (they are in the 7th now i think). Its most of all strong performances on the acts, therefore use 2 hours of your precious life on this domestic disturbance movie from the black part of the manchuchuo-flag, the republic of south korea. The grumpy old man recommends.

The best Korean movie in the last year and one of the best movies I have ever seen , After I finished it I watched "A taxi driver 2017 " its events after four months of the events of 12 12 the day to see what's the impact of these 9 hours and what they did in a whole country for 8 years , it was horrific and people suffered alot this time . The direction is great, make me nervous until the end, director kim sung su is one of the best Korean directors especially after this movie , the screenplay was great too , it shows alot of events happend in only 9 hours without any false and with alot of tense . The acting is amazing from all actors but Hwang jung min is in another level, The scene in the bathroom is crazy , I think all the awards best actor this year are done.

The English name of the movie is '12.12:The Day'. But Korean name is 'Spring in Seoul' The most impressive thing of the movie is that it have the audience think the various things by themselves. Beyond the loyalty and the betrayal, the democracy and the tyranny, and the army of information and the army of disinformation, the movie makes the audience think about those by themselves. Any director couldn't make it happened intentionally. But it only could be succeeded by the genius directing. The second most impressive thing is the unforgettable scripts in it. "Kim Ill-Sung(The former DPRK ringleader) can't never attack ROK now !", "We, army are all at the same side.", "The front is here for now !", "I'll crush you with tank by myself !" and "If you fail they'll call you a coup, but if you succeed they'll call you a revolution !" Surprisingly, there're more scripts I remember though it's been over a month passed since I watched the movie. The two main actors did their job amazingly. Jeon Do-Kwang(based on the former dictator of ROK, Jeon Do-Whan) is a character who leads rebel army, is a big shot of illegal inner circle of army. Lee Tae-Shin(based on the former patriot general, Jang Tae-Wan) is the character who leads the suppression force, collapsing army. Everything happened around these 2 main characters. And the movie showed it very well. 12.12:The Day scores more than 13 million audiences in Korea. There're the people of the middle ages who know the history and the young ages who don't know it or don't care of it. If it couldn't move both of the people, it couldn't succeed such a great score. It's also amazing score because it achieved in theatre not in OTT. Which means that If someone made a great movie, people will visit a theatre again to watch it. I want to call it a 'Hope'. For the fan of a political + military thriller, I highly recommend you of 12.12:The Day. (If you can take a captioned movie.)
