Gifted South Korean filmmaker Kim Ji-woon takes on Sergio Leone's greatest western and (unbelievably) emerges victorious. It's the 1930s in the desert wilderness of Japanese colonised Chinese Manchuria and three treasure hunters are in a race for booty. An incredibly enjoyable adventure that pulls in the army, Manchurian bandits and the inhabitants of a mysterious ghost market.
