YesAsia Editorial Description
Korean filmmaker Kim Ki-Duk (SPRING, SUMMER, FALL, WINTER...AND SPRING) dramatizes the schism between North and South Korea in THE COAST GUARD (HAE ANSEON). Private Kang (Jang Dong-kun) is a South Korean soldier fanatically dedicated to his country and his duty, patrolling the shores at night to prevent North Korean spies from entering the country. But one night while on patrol, he mistakes a civilian couple for enemies and kills the man. From that moment forward, his fate seems linked to that of the woman, as both slowly lose their minds from guilt and paranoia. THE COAST GUARD is Kim Ki-Duk's powerful condemnation of the militarism that has gripped the two countries.
"[A]s ever with Kim, there are moments of stomach-knotting force." - Matthew, Leyland (Film Critic), Sight and Sound, 12/01/2006

its a diiferent jang
| I have seen him in various action films, but this one is quite different from his other movies. He is disturbed in this movie because he killed someone but accident. And because of this he was not able to handle it and ended up psychotic. Even his acting for me is quite convincing. I recommend this movies to Jang dong Gun fans. |

very touching if you have a kind heart
| The story is very touching, Jang Dong Gun acted very well and the song he sang at the end of the movie is so sad. I watched it many times in Korean version and this version too. |

Too bad, Jang Dong Gun
| They say that every good actor/actress makes one bad movie for every good movie they star in. This is the bad one Jang Dong Gun has for his good one in "Friend". Yes, the director is known for making strange and controversial films. "Coast Guard" portrays Jang as a deranged individual after a traumatic experience. Jang does a good job however the character he portrays is not a likable one. In the end, you are left with an unsatisfied experience with nothing but feeling bad and sorry for a lot of the characters in the film. |

Disappointed
|
Considering this has Jang Dong Gun (Friend, 2009: Lost Memories), I expected a lot from this film. To my dismay, I was disappointed. I know that Koreans can get melodramatic and overzealous in their emotions, but this one takes the cake. I couldn't get over how much pity I had for the characters. Just when you thought it couldn't get worse, someone else just had to have it worse off than the last. |

no kudos for this movie
| Unfortunately I did buy this movie, so im stuck with it. I do have to say, the actors/actress were very convicing at their roles. Very good acting. BUT I dont know why they would agree to make this movie in the first place. The storyline, plot, which ever one you would like to say made the movie awful. If my review was base on acting, I would give it kudos other wise, no. I dont think its a good movie at all. |
