My Way (South Korea, 2011)

In colonial era Seoul, 1938, two young men have had a strong sense of rivalry since they were young. Joon-sik is a Korean man who dreams of becoming the Olympic marathon gold winner. Tatsuo is a top Japanese marathon runner and lived with Joon-sik as his family worked for Tatsuo's as servants. One day, Joon-sik falls into trouble and is conscripted into the Japanese army. One year later, Joon-sik faces Tatsuo who is now a captain for the Japanese Imperial Army. 

What it lacks in plot, My Way makes up for in epic warfare. It contains a ton of huge scale battle scenes which are all very well-done, but the plot is rather thin and doesn't exactly break new ground with its story about two rivals who go into war together. But it's still a very enjoyable and touching movie that definitely will appeal to fans of war films.
