Der Köder

Joong-Hoon Park is a funny actor in Korea. He likes to play in soft-core-action comedy movies. His best movie is "Two Cops 2". In the movie "Wanted", Park played with Australian actors and came up much better than I expected. It is worthwhile to watch if you like comedies. I can say that Park's movies are action-like comedies while Jackie Chan's movies are actions in funny way. Like Park's other movies, this is a pure comedy film.

So we checked the cover of the film. Asian crew, made in Australia, low budget action. Seemed like a nice entertaining flick, we thought about Jackie Chan's "Mr. Nice Guy" and other action movies like "Enter The Eagles". This was nothing like that. The guy who had the leading role was horribly bad and we hoped he was cast for his fighting skills or something, but that was not the case. Over a period of 85 minutes, which seemed like three hours, there was two and a half boring action sequences, and there basically was no fighting at all, just shooting. The story was mostly really dull, and I never figured out who some of the people really were. This movie was just plain bad. Avoid.
