Cold War (2000)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Since the death of his wife three years ago, Ka Chu has become an assassin for Maria who has feelings for him that he cant reciprocate. On a mission in Seoul to take out Chue Chung, the Taiwanese gangster who controls South East Asia, Ka Chu realises that over these three years hes systematically taken out almost the whole of Chungs generation, leaving his younger brother Yung to take control. Realising that hes the next target with Marias finger on the trigger, an injured Ka Chu goes on the run with Kinko, a Korean woman he rescues from Chungs sexual advances, pursued by Yung and rogue Seoul policeman Wu.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
