Raging Years

YesAsia Editorial Description

Im Kwon-taek's 99th cinematic surprise!

In Raging Years the acclaimed director takes the viewers on a journey to Korea's past, skillfully blending fiction and reality to offer you a captivating crime story with some touching romantic moments.

Jo Seung-woo portrays small-time hoodlum Tae-woong whose on-going activities in the underworld let him rise to power. Changing from a criminal leader to a film producer and businessman, Tae finds a loyal partner in his wife Hae-ok (Kim Min-seon) who supports him regardless of how high the odds are. Mentioning historical events that moved Korea during the late 50's to the beginning 70's, Im Kwon-taek's Raging Years offers you an unusual tale abounding with action scenes and intriguing facts about the heydays of chic Korean movies.

Honored with the Best Director prize at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, for his 98th blockbuster movie Chiwhaseon , talented director Im Kwon-taek has been invited to the Venice Film Festivals for his latest silver screen success Raging Years and thus has the chance to win the Golden Lion in the category for Best Film. Im's 97th movie Chunhyang was also among the competing movies at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival, thus the ambitious director has consecutively landed 3 acclaimed silver screen hits.

I almost fall asleep Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
I only watch this movie because of Cho Seung Woo. I first saw him in Chunyang, he was young and thin at that time.

His acting is ok but this mafia movie is so dragging that it almost made me sleep.

not your best work Im Kwon Taek... Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
First of all, do NOT i repeat do NOT expect alot...Im Kwon Taek has been obssessed with going to Cannes for his last 3,4 films that he has forgotten the core value....making a movie that counts... this movie truly is nothing special....true kim min sun and jo seung woo play their part inside out and kim min sun's delivery scene is quite beautiful but if you are looking for action, look somewhere else....looking for romance...look somewhere else...looking for comedy, sex, etc...look somewhere else
