Anyone else see this film? It's a South Korean film, so you have to read subtitles, but it's one of the better films I've seen in quite some time. A really unique story (much of it plays like a mystery), and quite a bit of top-notch action. I'm far too lazy to do a big write up on it, but I strongly suggest you check it out.

:D :D :D :D out of :D :D :D :D

I've wanted to see this for a long time. Did you see it on Comcast? It's been on there for a while and I've never got around to checking it out.

After some searching, it appears that the intent is not to remake this film, but make a unique film based on the same manga from which this film is based. The manga is apparently fairly different from this film. Not that I have a whole lot of hope of a Spielberg-Smith vehicle producing a film of this quality, these days. We'll see, I guess. Either way, it won't lessen the enjoyment this film brought me.
