Length OK, new article. Ref for hook is an interview with the director, but does indeed indicate they wanted to portray that, so the assertion is fair. However;

  • The lede is not currently a summary; it contains claims that are not expanded upon in the article; e.g. "directed by Lee Joon-ik" - there is no ref after that specific claim (it might be covered in the ref at the end of the para?) and is not mentioned in the body text;
  •  Done The paragraph is sourced, per DYK criteria. Rcej (Robert) – talk 06:28, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • sequel to the 2003 film Once Upon a Time in a Battlefield and stars Jeong Jin-yeong, Lee Mun-shik, Ryu Seung-ryong - again, needs a ref at the end of the sentence
  •  Done The paragraph is sourced, per DYK criteria. Rcej (Robert) – talk 06:28, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • et in 668 and chronicles the war between all southern Korean state of Shilla against the larger northern Korean state of Goguryeo ditto - I appreciate it is covered in ref [1], but that isn't entirely clear (and if someone edits and adds something in-between. it will cause problems)
  • I'm not sure the refs show that Lee Joon-ik chose to retire because of the low ratings of this film - I can't find it in the refs; apologies if I missed it
  • The film was shown at various film festivals, including the New York Asian Film Festival in July 2011.[2] - the ref shows it was at that festival - but what are these other 'various film festivals'? That doesn't seem to be in the ref
  • the director had grown "in leaps and bounds as a technically confident film-maker" since the film - all quotes should have a direct, inline reference; this lacks one.
  • The infobox has names re. "Produced by", "Written by", "Starring", "Music by", "Cinematography" etc. with no reference(s) to verify these names (c/f WP:BLPNAME).
  • This is already ref'd in the article, though.
The article mostly checks out, but I think some of the concerns above - especially referencing clarification - should be addressed before it is accepted as a DYK.  Chzz  ►  09:59, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
