The Hook

The Hook
In the final days of the Korean War, an enemy airman is captured by three American soldiers who cannot bring themselves to follow the order to execute their prisoner.

The Hook is not a war film, even though it takes place during the Korean War. It uses a battle and the orders of a superior officer to set the parameters of the conflict. The conflict is not with the enemy but instead with their moral compass and each other. There were times I thought the movie went a little overboard to create tension, but overall, I enjoyed the film.
