Title: NLL, my war movie recommendation.
Post by: Skyguns MKII on May 04, 2016, 04:42:52 AM
Northern Limit Line
Its a south Korean movie based on the naval skirmish in 2002 known as the Battle of Yeonpyeong. Made possible with a budget of donations from those showing support. Director was pretty on point i would say.

Here is a trailer for ya guys...

May still be on netflix but it was abbreviated. Its a subbed movie but a little culture difference wont kill you.   :salute

Looks interesting.  Thanks for the post.

Most people don't know all the weird crap North Korea does periodically -- incursions here an there where they charge in and kill some people:

Nope, I have a buddy that got me a little into the culture do to his occupation as a dance consultant for the countries music videos. I was supposed to visit Soel forever ago but life takes a hold.

Great post, I've seen some of the YT videos of naval actions the DPRK and ROK have had.  Korea and specifically the military situation there is something I read a lot about, very interesting stuff IMO, and easily the place the USA and allied forces could most likely be called to action in a major war, and not just these little actions we've been in since Vietnam or so.

I'm looking forward to watching this.  There have been some South Korean made films of modern air combat that really aren't too bad.

As it happens as well, one of my favorite rifles is one of my oldest, a Korean made 556 Daewoo that is now prohibited in Canada but was completely unrestricted back when I bought it off a soldier being deployed to Cyprus for peacekeeping that needed quick cash back in 1992 or so.  One of the first really good piston 556 rifles out there.

It's hard to believe that the DPRK has launched artillery attacks, and sank a major Corvette class warship with torps from a sub all in the last 5 or 6 years, and just keep getting away with that nonsense.  I suppose having your largest city with millions of people within range of tens of thousands of arty tubes and long range free flight over ground rockets and such would give anyone pause, but eventually IMO the way Kim J U is acting things will come to a head.
