Movie of the Week: Attack the Gas Station

Attack the Gas Station

Korean with English Subtitles

Yes it may be Korean but don't let its non-Hollywood nature turn you off. "Attack the Gas Station" is a teen comedy throw on its ear, and then kicked a few times for good measure. Four young punks decide to rob a gas station for fun. Once they discover that there isn't much money to be had they stick around and make the station their own little fiefdom. Over the course of the evening they battle gangs and police, assault Chinese food delivery boys, make people stand on their heads and in general cause mischeif and mayhem. The four main characters are very well crafted and interesting. While I have mentioned fights and gangs the film is in fact very tame and comical, suitable for all audiences with the exception of some closed captioned bad language.
