We’re continuing our ongoing devotion to all things Tartan (catch up with our reviews HERE!) with another contest, this time for the snazzy Blade Runner-ish futuristic flick Natural City. It’s got super-powered cyborg killing machines literally dismantling human soldiers using high-tech weapons and insane martial arts. You know you wanna see it.
The official synopsis: Rebuilt after a devastating war, the world of 2080 has given rise to advanced technologies including the creation of cyborgs. Created with artificial intelligence (AI), human-like emotions and great strength, they serve mankind for their entire short lifespan. When the cyborgs revolt, Noma (Yoon Chan) and R (Yoo Ji-tae, Oldboy, Antarctic Journal, Lady Vengeance) lead an elite military squad ordered to eliminate the rebellion. Unbeknownst to anyone, R is harvesting AI chips from dead cyborgs in order to save his dying lover, Ria (Seo Rin), a cyborg just days away from shutting down. Intent on stopping R, however, is his compatriot, Agent A, who knows something more may be amiss.
So how do you win this DVD, ziggy? Use the link below, send your full name and address, and answer these questions:
1. Natural City is sort of a blatant riff on Blade Runner. Sometimes Asian films aren’t very subtle when it comes to their American influences — name another Asian film you’ve seen that had a general tone or specific scene that instantly reminded you of a Hollywood movie.
2. Speaking of Hollywood, it’s about the least natural city on the planet. Name your favorite famous fake body part(s), and the human they’re attached to, and why you like ’em.
CONTEST HAS ENDED!
