Approaching midnight in Hong Kong, police headquarters receives an
anonymous call: a fully loaded police van carrying the force’s most
advanced equipment and five highly trained officers has disappeared off
the grid. The hijackers possess direct knowledge of police procedures
and are already several steps ahead. The police must meet a list of
demands to ensure the hostages’ release, including the delivery of a
large ransom. Any delay will cost lives. The clock has begun to tick.

charge of the rescue operation, code named COLD WAR. Lau wants to
negotiate with the hijackers while covertly tracking them to their
hideout. Lee is ready for an all-out aggressive attack, no matter the

Lau and Lee are aware that every decision is crucial, that each
minute counts. But as they execute a carefully planned attack, they know

“Three Kims” is a film which attempts to put a comic twist on the time honoured martial arts genre, as well as marking the debut proper of director Park Sung Gyun. Given the usual predilection for first time Korean directors to add to the endless number of painfully earnest gangster thrillers, this brave choice alone surely earns Park bonus points, though he goes one further in assembling a top notch cast of talented comic actors in an all-out bid for laughs.
Kinky sex between an 18 year old girl and a 38 year old man. Some call this the Korean version of Last Tango in Paris while others call it disgusting filth.
This film was once banned in Korea.
A conscious exploration of fantasy and flesh. The director talks about the novel upon which the film is based, we see the crew at work, the actors talk about what's going on. Y, a schoolgirl of 18, chooses her first lover (rather than wait to be raped, as were her two older sisters). After phone sex with J, a sculptor who's 38, they begin an affair that, by the second meeting, includes spankings as foreplay. J brings a suitcase full of rods, hoses, and wires; Y gathers sticks to bring. Y's brother discovers the affair. J's wife, studying in Paris, calls him to join her. Will the lovers part? Will the violence get out of hand? When do the lies begin?
