Product Information


導演︰姜帝圭

  一日黑市軍火商林光超聯絡南韓情報科特攻崔相煥及李正希,要求以情報換取軍方的貼身保護,未幾卻被殺手幹掉,行兇模式與失縱一年的北韓特攻金明姬的手法極為相似。正當崔、李俱懷疑情報科有內奸時,北韓特攻的首領卜萬坤赫然現身,揚言已奪得南韓最新發明的液體炸彈CTX,更在漢城埋下十枚CTX,誓要將首都炸毀,面對空前危機,誰可扭轉局面呢?被視為“帶動韓國百年影業邁向新里程”的《生死諜變》,開畫首日四小時戲票即告售罄,上映57日更打破《鐵達尼號》的票房紀錄。《八月照相館》男主角韓石圭與新秀金允珍的精湛演出,令這套“51%動作+49%愛情”的史詩式鉅製更加引人入勝。

  The arms smuggler Lim is shot by a sniper after volunteering to tell some important information to the nation's special agents, Ryu and Lee. From the scene of the Lim's death, Ryu instinctively suspects the involvement of Hee, the best sniper of the 8th special Force of North Korea. She has assassinated many government officials and hid herself from the unrelenting pursuit of Ryu. Meanwhile, Park and the elite agents of the 8th special Force of North Korea succeed in seizing the CTX, the liquid bomb developed by the National Defense Lab with the help of Lim. While everyone is trying hard to retrieve the CTX, Ryu and Lee are suspicious of each other and the date set of the marriage of Ryu and Hyun approaches quickly. But their marriage is another sign of impending misfortune.

  Shiri recorded the Top Box Office in Korean Film history; it broke the Korean B.O. record of Titanic after its 57 days release. The unique combination of '51% action, 49% love' helps Shiri become a movie that excites all strands of the audience’s sensibility without a moment of relaxation!

This customer review refers to Shiri (DTS Version) (Hong Kong Version)
Be aware this is a not a widescreen version! Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
I was very disappointed when I received this DVD because the movie is presented in a letterbox format (for standard TVs) and this fact is not disclosed in the product description of the YesAsia web-site. Anyway it seems the publisher worked hard to introduce a DTS sound, but forgot to improve the format. The movie itself is excellent though.

When I dream Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Wow! This movie is one of the best Action movies I have seen in my entire life. Its a movie that could really only be produced in Korea (possibly Germany when it was also divided) and has realistic gun fighting as well as a really great love story. The love story is the best part of the film and it is what sets it apart from the Hollywood Action movies.

There is a girl (like in all action movies), but she is more than just a passive princess that needs to be protected and really only serves that function... In this movie she is like super integral to the story, and it makes the movie super melodramatic too. I never noticed that she actually plays two parts in the film... She is the N. Korean agent and she is also the patient who the N. Korean agent modeled her plastic surgery on.

A lot of action sequences are very familiar to the typical american though, you will constatnly be expereinceing deja vu in a lot of the shots...the Music is also very Hans Zimmer. (No Car chase scene though)

What makes the film unique is the political commentary... the movie doesn't portray N. Koreans as monsters but instead gives a symphatetic view. The symbolism of the Shiri and Reunification is also really cool. I love the song they play during the credits.

better than yesterday Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
I was hesitant to buy this title because I didn't like "Yesterday". When I saw this movie, I figured maybe it was as boring, yet I still decided to give it a shot anyway. To my surprise, it is better, although I have to admit that there were some scenes that I didn't get. It's worth your time. For collection? You decide.
