About The South Korean film is a spaghetti Western set during WWII. Three men are hunting for a treasure and whoever finds it first, gets to keep it. Also in the mix are Mongolians bandits, the Japanese army and the Korean independence army.

My 5 cents A big scale violent and funny western from Korea, meant to be seen on the big screen yet will end up finding its US audience on DVD like so many good foreign films, pitty.

Recommendation Pass, or short, wait for a release date so I doesn't just become another filler in your port.
