Kundo - Age of the Rampant

Kundo: Age of the Rampant

Kundo is based on a real uprising against the corrupt ruling class in the 19th-century Korea.
With a kind of bloody vengeful Robin Hood and his viscious band vibe, this is an action packed film with a "Western" feel.
This movie reminded me of those "Spaghetti" westerns. You know- Clint Eastwood, Yul Brenner, Henry Fonda, Jack Elam, Lee van Cleef, Telly Savalas and others riding across the Spanish countryside in those Italian made western movies.
I truly enjoyed watching this movie.

From the Distributor:

1859. The last days of the Joseon Dynasty, where the wages of greed bring poverty and death. A pack of bandits - calling themselves KUNDO - rise against the tyrants, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. In an era where status is decided by birth, this band of thieves risks their lives for honor, in the name of the poor and oppressed. But for one man, a debt of bloody revenge is owed to the aristocrat that robbed him of his family and his name.
