Viewing Notes

This is everything the film festival hype of last year as led you to believe. As the title indicates, it’s an obvious take on the Leone Dollars trilogy classic but produced in Korea. It’s not perfect but such a wonderful ride it’s hard not to love this flick. Destined for a future movie night.
