Hansan: Rising Dragon

Why do they always make these films more like fantasy based on historical events....

Reviewers say it's not a good movie. But Korean thinks differently. We already know Lee's life. The action shows amazing, because we don't know enough details about war

Not of quite the same calibre as its predecessor (2014's ‘The Admiral: Roaring Currents'), it feels almost like a re-tread and somehow manages to deliver even less characterisation. Choi Min-sik's strong screen presence is also sorely missed. Nevertheless, much like the previous film, ‘Hansan: Rising Dragon' shines when it comes to its naval battles which take up a considerable amount of run time and are fun enough to watch, despite feeling much less fresh this time around.

Great production, but the ships are traveling around 30mph when in reality rowed ship only did about 5mph max. Kind of eliminates the ramming option. Plus cannons of that period could not be "Double Loaded". No way to light the second ones fuse.

This movie was exciting. I love historical movies. I always go back to see how accurate they were. I particularly find Korean history interesting. They certainly are a nation of people who believe certain ideas are worth fighting for. The acting was superb. The action was intense. If you like this genre and particularly Korean history, this is a must watch.

So unintelligible it was almost funny. But it wasn't.

Rising Dragon is a sequel done perfect. A well made movie with hardly any flaws in the re-enactment process. Great work by the whole cast not missing a single beat. Excellent character insight and story build up no plot holes at all every bit of the story ia relevant to the final victory at battle. It's one of the very few movies of the genre that really is exciting without straight up war and bloody. Rising Dragon has a quietening effect to it which results it's action sequences to be fully effective. Mind-blowing special effects, simply fun to watch. Sound effects supplements well too. Worth the watch without a doubt.

This is fun or not fun? There's no need to argue. This is real history of Korea.

Amazing CGI, and great acting.

By far one of the best tactical sea battle.. with yi sun shin tutelage their manage to beat japan flee
