Setting the record straight,
By selma_hepburn (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Volcano High [DVD] (DVD)
Right lets set the record straight about this film.....By no means is it crap but its not a shining example of Koren filmmaking either. Taking place in Volcano High, a school for pupils with exordinary powers (sensing a little X men here) it follows the typical troubled but misunderstood new kid who is the most powerful of them all able to perform some 'Chi' trick of merging water into a force blast type thing!!!! As far as narrative goes, this isn't the most clear in the world, things happen that don't really make sense but that may be a case of translation barriers. However I found it emensly entertaining. The look of it is also really intersting, everything is tinted a blue steely look which makes the film visually stand out. However, for those hard core Martial Arts fans out there I don't think this will live up to your expectations as its a case of less fighting and more 'wire fu', computer effects and overly long posed stasis in which we must admire the well formed form of the led male who has a rather concerning bleached-dye thing going on!!!! But for those less disserting Martial Arts viewers this will no doubt provide a most entertaining viewing but....

Marmite Film,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Volcano High [DVD] (DVD)
Had it for almost a year, watched it twice, not inspired to watch it again!
Dont get me wrong, its a good film and at a couple of quid its worth the purchase (Cheaper than reting from Blockbusters and you can always sell it on). The story, is easy to predict, but somewhat all over the place. The fights, are good but I found due to the effects they became hard to follow in places. Dubbing, I never use it, to appreciate the good parts of the film, neither should you. I gave it 4stars, wasnt particularly my cup of tea but its not a 1 star. Worth watching!

Great Fun,
By Christian (Witney, Oxon United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Volcano High [DVD] (DVD)
OK ok this film isn't the most indulgent plotwise. However if you like action and lots of style this film is for you!! Bring on Korean new wave!!
