Notte. Un gruppo di ragazzotti un po' strambi decide di rapinare una stazione di servizio. Niente di eccezionale.
Passa un po' di tempo.
Notte. Il gruppo di ragazotti above, bored while eating noodles at a neighborhood restaurant, he decided to break the monotony of robbing a service station. the same service station. But then realize that pretending to be the owners perhaps earn more. From here a series of daring and absurd situations of violence so funny to provoke uncontrolled laughter, like the beatings to which we had used the classic Bud Spencer & Associates.
Attack the Gas Station is not, of course, a horror movie. Indeed.
Film unpretentious but highly effective, full of references and citations (can not think of it as the Korean answer to A Clockwork Orange, which is both child both parody and homage), pleasant and enjoyable nonetheless.
Note on the interpreters (never over the top), a magnificent flagship youth malaise brought to the screen in an ironic and light, without falling into the obvious. Subtle criticism of the rigidity of the Korean education (both in the family and in schools, with particular attention to the world of art and sport) which does not reflect the originality and unconventional nature of four young people who, for this are punished and forced into a life of rebellion (personal and social). Absolutely
significant final redemption, but that does not include punishment for players who reach the long-awaited maturity thanks to raids such as these and thus acquire the courage to realize their dreams.
all presented in a fun and funny, almost like a bitter pill coated with cotton candy.
brilliant.
Rating: 7.5
