Yaksha, un démon en mission

Came across this new Korea action movie on Netflix. Storyline was intriguing and fast pace. Quite a few plot twist and good action. Look like there is going to have a sequel. Can't wait to see.

The film was good, the South Korean actors are very good in different types of films or TV series, especially in politics, military and law enforcement themes. Considering the current state of North Korea is to tread carefully with the storyline in relation to leaders of North Korea; as the films illustrates a espionage battle with Chinese and Japanese agents. However, I can see why the overthinking of the storyline could take place, considering one scene with a member of North Korean's central committee was in a very vulnerable position. Though, historically, a united Korea was considered a threat to Japan and US. Moreover, the film has a very cool visual with exciting drama and suspense. For history geeks, try not to decode too deeply with the storyline, its good action film.

It is a very good action spy thriller with many twists. If you want to spend your time action packed thriller, and entertainment, it is a good choice. I watched the dubbed one, which is good as well.

Undeveloped characters (I have nothing against actors), weak script, fable story. Nothing special, I just a mediocre spy/police movie with action (some very unrealistic) scenes.

Yaksha is a fast paced movie. Rarely in the movie you will find a slow moment and if any, it's just to explain some situations to the viewer.

It's not the among the bests that exist and not among the worsts. In a lot of the gunfights, seeing how no bullets hit the good guys the movie just becomes comedic. But it stays enjoyable to watch. The acting is just okay. Just watch it if you got nothing else to watch and need a good time.

Please Note that the movie can be sensitive to viewers who are into politics especially Japanese and Koreans. A lot of hates cliché that Japanese hates koreans and koreans hate Japanese more than North Koreans. This movie won't resolve any tensions of the past. So just a warning to any who are into politics.
