KOREAN HEAT

Within the sweaty, blood-smeared constraints of Yoon's hugely contrived narrative, though, the film does succeed as a slice of high-calibre, testosterone-fuelled escapism

A tour-de-force exercise in non-stop tension.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ACTION FANS.

Amazing 1 half, nonsense 2nd half, did they switch to another script writer or wat? Everything is good, the acting, camera, sound, ost, directing but the script doesnt make any sense after the parking lot scene, why empty hospital? Why let them go? I am confused.

I consider myself a fan of Korean cinema. Annually they release two or three cinematographic jewels that go unnoticed by the majority of the population. I expected more from this film, the script did nothing to develop a better plot, since between jumps the message is lost. At the end of the day, I do not know if there will be a sequel, since the end it's open, but I doubt it. Also, not knowing what exactly happened to Ki-hoon, after having him in front of the cameras throughout the entire movie, does not help to close the story. Although we assume it happened to him. In the end, I'm not quite sure if Jun-seok will become a Han in the future or if he would return to Korea to face Han, if he survived, like that guy say. I give it a 7, because the colors and the camera shots of the director are exceptional. Nothing else.

The movie is alright. Amazing cinematography, really good use of colors, and a couple of bangers in the soundtrack.

It just suffers from being too many things at the same time. Heist movie, horror movie, action movie. It feels like two movies stitched together with the same characters.

It's alright.

Time To Hunt: A near future Dystopic South Korea, a crook is released from prison and discovers the money from his last heist is worthless due to inflation. He plans a heist at a casino with friends to fund an escape from SK. Very much like The Last Days Of American Crime in set up and plot development. An interesting story is padded out by an overlong running time of 134 minutes. Some pretty good gunfights, well choreographed, car chases a mysterious assassin who is hired to eliminate the gang. This would have made a tight gangster thriller at 90 minutes. Directed & Written by Yoon Sung-hyun. On Netflix. 6/10.
