To me it felt like a average movie story evolving a serial killer. At first the movie seemed so interesting but ended badly. Story was predictable, nothing new and shocking. Maybe I expect too much from Korean serial killer movies as they are suspensefull and quite interesting but it wasn't much. But I must admit, lead actors did a amazing job.

The Chase isn't the greatest entry in South Korean cinema's serial-killer genre but it offers sufficient thrills, suspense, and dark humor to keep it an engaging affair. The first half towers over the second owing to its smooth transition between grisly murders and offhand comedy. The chemistry between the grumpy landlord and the ex-detective with memory issues was fantastic. The supporting cast, including the killer, also does well.

Director Hong-seon Kim tries to add one too many layers to the connected backstory of the detective and the killer but they don't add up to much, other than being well-shot. The end twist also doesn't blow your mind. I believe the director wanted to maintain a lighter tone even when the film dealt with a serious subject. It's safe to say that the efforts have paid off to an extent, if not fully.

A very good South Korean thriller which makes us follow an investigation around mysterious suicides and a serial killer. Beautiful photography and good staging and actors in the hair, no complaints. if you like the genre go for it.

I have never watched Korean movie that disappointed me and this one was great...loved the fact there was a few comedic parts but still a serious thriller movie

I haven't seen many Korean films but when this serial killer movie was showing on netflix, thought of watching. The acting by the lead actor (old guy as the landlord) is very good and supporting cast also does well. The suspense is maintained till the end.

If you want to see a decent thriller suspense movie, then this is a good watch.
