You need to take the safety off

Warning: Spoilers
The Korean peninsula has been devastated by a volcano-earthquake. The plan is to free a double agent then steal a nuke from North Korea, place it in a mine and then detonate it to relieve the pressure and prevent a major eruption. There is an Alpha team to do all the tough stuff and a tech team to extract the uranium and do the detonation. When they lose the alpha team, Captain Cho (Jung-woo Ha) of the tech team must lead his group on non-combatants armed with rubber bullets against the remnant of the North Koreans. Also his wife is expecting.

The team acts like the Keystone Cops until they can get into gear. While this is an action-thriller, I had several good laughs. Good characters.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
