    • Trivia
      This is the first Korean production in nearly three decades to receive wide theatrical release in the United States.
    • Goofs
      When the leader of the soldiers is speaking, his mouth movements don't match what he's saying in Korean, and if you look closely, you can tell that he's actually speaking the English dialog given in the subtitles.
    • Quotes

      Sarah Daniels: I keep trying to understand, but none of this is making any sense.

    • Alternate versions
      The final edit for both the US and Korean versions of the film run approximately 92 minutes, considerably shorter than the 110 minute cut first shown at the American Film Market in Santa Monica, CA on November 4, 2006, and again at the Berlin Film Market on February 8, 2007. According to D-WAR production company Younggu Art Entertainment, the film was tightened to improve pacing based on feedback from preview screenings.

    a waste of $9 and 90 minutes.

    left me speechless at the end of the movie.

    overall, in my opinion, the movie gets 5 out of 10. 1 because i'm a Korean. plus 1 because i want Korean movies to succeed overseas. plus 1 because the CG is not too bad. plus 1 because it's little better than the previous movie by Shim. last plus 1 is added because i'm a Korean.

    now about the movie.. storyline interruptions and inconsistency between the scenes are not really noticeable due to bad actings. also i've never seen director's comments(documentary) in the ending credits. only good part about the movie are the in-city fighting scenes.

    since i consider myself to be a patriot, i refuse to comment more in detail about the movie.

    only warn others to not have high expectations before going to see the movie.
