The 2004 film Brotherhood of War is quite an effective, melodramatic exploration on how familial bonds transcend nation and ideology but we aren't here to discuss that: we're here to talk about bringing the crazy.

The show-stopping finale finds our hero Jin-tae (a South Korean soldier in the Korean War who defects to the North Korean side and back again over the course of the film) standing off against the charging North Korean infantry with nothing but a machinegun. Jin-tae trys to buy his brother Jin-seok time to escape the onslaught. Before he's finally overrun and killed, Jin-tae sends a whole host of North Korean infantrymen to an early grave and earns his place in the pantheon of insane ass-kickers.
