Genre: Drama/ Thriller (The Tower)
When I was looking thru at cinema listing on what movie to watch, there is none interesting and starting to check all the trailer. The Tower capture my attention and decided to watch it without any expectation. Guess what?
Its a movie that every Korean celebrate Christmas and like all of us do especially on Christmas eve by throwing party at condo, hotels and restaurant. At this eve, with a grand celebration took place as the owner of the complex, Mr. Jo Sky Tower in Seoul decides to hold a “White Christmas” party for tenants and VIPs on Christmas Day, with helicopters circling above, sprinkling snow onto the party. While the party is in its climax celebration then strong wind blow into the helicopter that makes them out of control and crashes into the building and the building catches fire.
This 120 story luxurious landmark building complex being flame up from top and many VVIP got trap. Fireman to the rescue, people in the building trying to survive and . . . . .
A superb movie that you must watch, a great flow of movie line filled with laughter that will makes you jump out from your seat, heart pumping and tears drop. Never knew Korean production is so good now! At near 1 of the last scene on his act Captain of fire fighter makes me relate back Armageddon (one of my all time favourite movie) where he sacrifise himself for the rest of the team.
This movie also let me know that to be a Captain for fire fighter is not easy, need to understand so many terms, especially physics, think logically, act fast and many more. Respect the captain in this movie.
One of the best Korean movie I have watch so far.
