A Better Tomorrow  (2010) NTSC DVD5
=============================

Plot or synopsis :
The 2010 remake of the Hong Kong action classic brings the bullets, brotherhood, 
and heroic bloodshed to South Korea. Directed by Song Hae-sung ("Maundy Thursday") 
and executive produced by John Woo himself, the updated version changes the setting 
to the Korean port city of Busan, but stays true to the familiar hardboiled story of brotherhood, 
betrayal, and revenge. Where the original is tight and stylish, the remake is grand and gritty 
with sprawling scenes of gangster action from its star cast. Song Seung-heon ("Fate") takes 
the Chow Yun-fat role in this fiery crime actioner, while Joo Jin-mo ("A Frozen Flower") is the 
troubled mob boss, Kim Gang-woo ("Le Grand Chef") the conflicted policeman brother, and 
Jo Han-sun ("Attack the Gas Station 2") the backstabbing mobster.

A former North Korean defector, mobster Kim Hyuk (Joo Jin-mo) sits comfortably at the top 
of the Busan underworld, but continues to be haunted by the memory of the family he left behind. 
Betrayed by his own henchman Tae-min (Jo Han-sun), Hyuk walks into a setup in Thailand, and 
lands in prison. His friend Young-chun (Song Seung-heon) attempts to avenge him by wiping out
 the Thai gang. Three years later, Hyuk is released from prison and returns to Busan, only to find 
that everything has changed. Tae-min is the top dog in town, and Young-chun is down and out with 
a limp leg. Hyuk's younger brother Chul (Kim Gang-woo) has resurfaced as a crime detective intent 
on taking down Tae-min's gang, paving the way for a bloody clash. (YesAsia)
