“Take Point” Korean Theatrical Poster
South Korean heavies Ha Jung-Woo (Tunnel, Along With the Gods: The Two Worlds) and Lee Sun-Kyun (A Hard Day, Advocate: A Missing Body) are pairing up for Take Point (read our review), a military actioner from director Kim Byung-Woo (The Terror Live).
On the day of the U.S. presidential election in 2024, Ahab and his team of elite mercenaries embark on a secret CIA mission to abduct North Korea’s Armed Forces Minister in an underground bunker below the Korean Demilitarized Zone. However, they get caught in the crossfire which causes tensions to escalate to the brink of World War III.
Updates: A New International Trailer for Take Point has hit the net ahead of its December domestic release. The film will also be getting a limited theatrical run the same month, so check your local listings for details.
The terror live was frankly awesome and VERY wisely made. But too much English makes me angry: do the producers really think it’ll help the film’s international box-office to rise as high as the moon? Waiting for it, but not that much.
