As of late, it seems every country with a nationalistic concerns, has been turning out war films with what I'd call, "patriotic" overtones.
Operation Chromite offers up a South Korean/US take on the Korea war. There's a good back story, complimented by decent acting, directing and lots of well paced, polished action.
That said, I'd describe this film as also a bit simplistic in its approach. The North are, for the most part, the "bad guys" in a very black and white way and the Southern solders, the "good guys".
If you can accept these limitations, this war film remains a mostly enjoyable watch. Seven out of ten from me.
