Normally, the combination of high school, taekwondo, a small budget and a cast of little known actors would be the recipe for a hackneyed summer teen action flick trying to make a quick won. However, while it may not be the most original of films, ``Tollyochagi (Spinkick)" overcomes the odds and turns out to be a surprisingly well-paced and entertaining movie.
``Spinkick" is in the tradition of the classic underdog story, in which a group of misfits learn to work together as a team. The movie has hints of such sports films as ``Bring It On"or ``Slap Shot" but its style and sense of drama are more along the lines of comic books, most notably ``Slam Dunk" the Japanese basketball manga that was all the rage in the late 1990s.
From Top POP singer to Promising Actor - KIM Dong-wan (SHINHWA)
KIM Dong-wan shows us quite a change in his shift from being a leader of a successful pop band, Shinhwa, to a film actor. He admits that his performance in the TV series Kids in Heaven isn't exactly award winning material, and this time around with SPIN KICK, he still thinks of himself as rookie. But there's something special about Kim as a young actor. While taking on the challenge of playing the lead in this film wasn't easy, it was his dedication and genuine passion for the film itself that helped him stand out from the rest.
Laughter, tears, and emotions inspire the first Korean youth oriented sports genre.
Everyone remembers the fun and excitement of sports genre comic books (and films) such as Slam Dunk (basketball ), H2 (baseball), "Waterboys" (Swimming) and "Sumo Do, Sumo Don't" (Sumo). In the same tradition, Spin Kick is another, yet unique sports genre film about the energetic, aggressive, and challenging teenagers who embrace Taekwondo as a sport. Not to mention the thrill and suspense of the sport itself, the originality of the comic story, in addition to the unrivaled uniqueness of the characters, create an exciting film that is filled with thrilling fun and adventure. It is the combination of these elements that provide a style of entertainment that is exclusive to Spin Kick.
