The genre of this movie can not be defined. As I emerged myself into the story I had a hard time coming out. It was thrilling, suspenseful, funny and undeniably saddening all at the same time. I'm not one to watch movies about war as I hate anything surrounding that context, but this movie got me interested in everything that happened during that period in time. The movie circles around a man Rho Ki Soo, played by D.O, and his growing love of tap dance in a time and environment where the main mindset is to kill or be killed. His love for dance makes him see his surroundings in a different way, putting aside differences of ideology and violence with the rest of his team members. I think one thing I loved the most was the main character growth throughout the movie, in character and heart. he really translated a lot to me as an audience and I took a lot away from this film. It showed how people can come together putting behind their differences to do something so amazing and refreshing in a very hard time. The cinematography is amazing in every single way, I think the director did a wonderful job in putting this movie together.
At times I would forget what genre I'm actually watching. The dialogue between each character made every scene refreshing, from the interactions with Rho Ki Soo and Jackson, with him and his fellow comrades and with Yang Pan-rae. The music and performances both acting and dance was like one seamless work, with no errors. They put in a lot of work and it really showed. I was so surprised when I found out filming was only 4 months and 30 days.
I learned a lot about the hardships of war in terms of people in color and women, it really showed how much of a strenuous thing on the lives of those fighting and their families too. I really cried at the end and not because of what happened or what didn't happen, but because of how beautiful the cinematography was pieced together and ultimately the things I learned.
Watch this movie, I swear you won't regret it, shout out to D.O, I see an oscar in your future.
