In a post-apocalyptic near-future, a researcher at an AI lab leads the effort to end a civil war by cloning the brain of an heroic soldier — her mother. (Synopsis)

Jung-E contained several good action sequences; however, the film's focus was more on the emotional drama, and on that level it worked well and was a gripping story. The pacing was pretty good, with no major lags, and the cast all gave riveting performances. This is not a film I can see myself wanting to watch again and again, but for a single watch it was enjoyable and looked good VFX-wise. It gets 4 stars from me.
