Skip it—this is a by-the-numbers military thriller that trades on Korea tension without bringing anything fresh to the table. The premise of soldiers protecting a tech specialist while evading enemy forces has been done better a dozen times, and without critical validation or a standout cast to justify the watch, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

With tensions between North and South Korea, a US helicopter crashes on the North side. The survivors must work together to protect a civilian tech specialist and find their way out without the help of US military support.
