Director Yim Soon-rye, well known for making carefully observed movies on characters considered as social misfits, has made her first venture into blockbuster filmmaking with the action film, “The Point Men.” However, the film is more introspective than many other big-budget action films. There is only one death scene because the director is against making movies that kill off too many people for no reason.
Longtime friends Hwang Jung-min and Hyun Bin expressed their excitement about sharing the screen for the first time in the action film, “The Point Men.” Directed by Yim Soon-rye, the film follows a story of Korean diplomat Jae-ho (Hwang) and National Intelligence Service agent Dae-sik (Hyun) who are on a mission to rescue Korean hostages kidnapped by the Taliban in Afghanistan. They must negotiate a settlement within 24 hours or the Taliban will kill the Korean hostages.
