The Tower – Tödliches Inferno (2012)

The Tower – Tödliches Inferno: Directed by Ji-hoon Kim. With Sol Kyung-gu, Son Ye-jin, Kim Sang-kyung, Kim In-kwon. A Christmas Eve party at a luxury residential building takes a horrific turn when a fire breaks out.

“Blah blah blah, is this a remake of The Towering Inferno (1974). For me it isnu0026#39;t, itu0026#39;s not because a disaster is taking place in a building that it is a remake of an old classic. But this flick here isnu0026#39;t for everybody because if you canu0026#39;t stand Asian flicks than stay away from this.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe way the acting is and the way characters are talking to each other doesnu0026#39;t add towards the easiness to watch this flick. Just see how the boss of the tower and the workers are handling towards each other. But on the other hand this isnu0026#39;t really a disaster flick, itu0026#39;s more an ode to the fire brigades risking their life every day. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNot that it was all that bad, the effects used were sublime. And there is suspense throughout the whole movie. There was even the typical Asian humour to see. But at the end of the day I thought that it would contain a bit of those Asian gore in it but it wasnu0026#39;t. Itu0026#39;s not a bad movie and you will have flashbacks to the 9/11 event like people jumping out of the building and when the tower collide, well, if you were all ready there on 9/11 you will have some memories.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 4/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5”
