Fantastic film, no surprise, from Korean filmmakers who are some of the best in the world. I loved every minute of it, and you might too. Give it a watch anyway. The kid. So cute!

Warning, you will need to read this movie unless you speak Korean. I was going to check it out then took the time to read it was in English sub titles. No way Joseph.

While this film has many of the typical action movie tropes, it also has greater intensity and more heart. Tae-Shik’s complexity, strength and vulnerability are wonderfully portrayed by Won Bin, who has got to be one of the sexiest men…

This movie remind me of Quentin Torantino’s bloody type movies. Good Korean action film. My first time watching Woo Bin, no wonder he is at top 10 most handsome Korean actors.

It should be noted that this movie is both violent and shocking, but not necessarily "shockingly violent". When you watch a Korean action movie, you should expect a high level of violence for most. (If you don't hear some bones snap at…

Hardcore. Master level violence. Nasty. Great movie. Won Bin and Kim Sae-ron rock! ! ! ! [UPDATE: Last movie made by Won Bin - - now this guy really has my respect and admiration as he gained bank, or public persona, then moved on to…

Warning: violence. But it was not waste of time for watching.

This foreign film is by far my favorite. The plot was well written, the cinematography was off the charts crazy good, and the action was well choreographed. The movie is in the Korean and it takes some time to build up to the really good…

Great action flick. Our hero (an ex-special forces dude) goes after the scum of S. Korea. These include perverts, drug traffickers, child enslavers, & human organ harvesters. Definately not for the kiddies as there is brief nudity &…

Masterly fights alternate with breathtaking sentimentality. The direction and acting make this film better than it has a right to be.

This is the perfect date movie. First ,you have a slashy action thriller.On the other hand, you have a heartfelt tearjerker.There are many characters to track . Some of the actors doing the lesser parts were very good

Excellent thriller! Kim Sae-Ron, playing the girl who befriends the mystery man, gives a heartfelt performance. In the search for her when she's kidnapped, he leaves his cocooned existence, and begins to leave his tragic past…

One of Wonbin's best movie.

I really loved this movie, it reminded me a bit of Luc Besson's "Leon The Professional" but of course with more blood and guts. The library seems to be on a roll with purchasing great South Korean films. Anyways, definitely worth a watch…

Great movie! A little cliched but thoroughly enjoyable.

This film is more than just some "cliche" fighting scenes, great characters and some great scenes. Although it will leave you wondering how one man can cut his own hair so well...? Feels like an Asian version of Leon - great performance by…

A lesson I learned from this movie: Action movie cliches are the same everywhere - when the hero enters the scene everyone stops whatever they were doing and a staring contest begins, which is probably how they decide the order of the…
