Well Go USA’s ESCAPE FROM MOGADISHU Releases This Week, So Here Are Eight More Hit Ryoo Seung-Wan Movies To Check Out Now!
Well Go USA is proudly releasing Ryoo Seung-wan’s latest period espionage thriller, Escape From Mogadishu this week wherever movies are sold. The film, which based on real life events surrounding the Somali Civil War in 1991, marks yet another level in artistic and creative growth for Ryoo who made his feature debut more than twenty years ago starring alongside his brother in gritty crime noir, Die Bad, and diving further into a variety slate of action titles like 2002’s No Blood No Tears, martial arts comedy Arahan, 2008 spy romp Dachimawa Lee and revenge thriller The City Of Violence to name a few.
Depending on where you look, you might get lucky to find all, or at least some of these films on disc in some form or fashion, as necessary as it is. Alas, with streaming staking its claim over much of the commercial film market these days, and provided that platforms hold onto these titles long enough before circulating them, if you’re looking for more Ryoo for your buck to endulge in beyond Escape From Mogadishu, then you’re definitely on greener grass, especially if you’re subscribed to Amazon Prime and/or Netflix and ad-supported streamer, Tubi. The only headache of course is that every now and then you’ll come across a title which reads “Currently Unavailable” on one of these platforms, to which I add: Don’t sweat it. These films pop up eventually and it helps that we can set reminders, plus it also helps that sites like JustWatch are keeping track as much as possible with these releases.
At any rate, here are some outstanding Ryoo Seung-wan titles you can scroll through and stream along with Well Go USA’s Escape From Mogadishu as of this article:
