19 years after the sleeper Japanese hit, Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, South Korean filmmakers decided to retool the anime into a live action film. If you live in the US, this is a 'Netflix Original Film' fully equipped with multiple language and subtitle options (but I say the original Korean is optimal). What is most shocking is the fact this property was remade. No one was asking for it and Jin-Roh doesn't have the international footprint like Ghost in the Shell or Akira. So is this remake a smart improvement on the original or just a pale imitation? Join Corbin and Allen as they review Illang: The Wolf Brigade to find out!
Join the discussion-Comment below! Question after the show: Do the Wolf Brigade outfits look better, worse, or the same compared to the anime? Why or why not?
