A kimche Western

The Good, the Bad, the Weird on IFC. Gun fights … lots of gun fights. Mile upon mile of horseback chases; a train robbery; and some old fashioned patriotic Korean, anti-Japan-imperialism for good measure.

Seattle Times movie reviewer Jeff Shannon mentions "astonishing stunt sequences filmed with breathtaking ineptitude” but then praises director Kim Jee-Woon for “honorable avoidance of digital trickery,” which means “that every stunt was accomplished with genuine bravery in the old-school tradition of Hollywood legends …”

It was a decent flick.

Yahoo movies says the film was shot in China, Los Angeles and South Korea. China and South Korea – lots of space for no particulars. Dazeddigital says one location was “the Manchurian desert.”
