Gongbeom

Although it might not be very original but the thriller concept of how blood relation might overcome conscience and common sense is still a fine concept, it's just in that matter, Gongbeom stands in a gray area. If it was to emphasize on drama, it lacks character digging and believable motive along the storyline. If it was to emphasize on thriller, it lacks suspense and shove up the climax too harshly and inconveniently that it felt so cheap by the end.

The story will left the viewer many questionable logic flaws here and there, which is inevitable in order to keep the story going. There were time I have to admit some tension was flowing and put hope that it better have a punchline which would turn the movie into a powerful thriller, but it never delivered. And aside from the two main characters of father and daughter, all the other supporting characters seem to hold little to no value and make a very non-essential existence. All in all point is taken, it's a fine movie only could and should be better executed.

A girl suspect her father would be a kidnapper amd killer..later she try to find truth about his father and past secrets slowly revealed. Good thriller movie and worth watchable..

A Father who loves her girl no matter what and the girl who loves her father in any circumstances and what exactly happened between them is the story. As Dae-won is a fully grown woman she takes care of her father very much.One day when was pushed into trauma because of hearing the infamous serial killer voice i.e her father's voice. The story began to ride faster with lots of twists that we can't even guess. Emotional touch is always a wonder in korean movies and they showcased it exactly right here too.I would give a 6.7 / 10

Anything (almost) that Son Ye Jin does is good. This thriller about a daughter who suspects her devoted father is a kidnapper in an old case. Things move quickly and you are kept guessing if and why. There is a good explanation and conclusive ending so you won't feel let down. Worth a watch.

An interesting premise that fails to live up to its promise. There are plot holes, which I will not comment on, but meant that I did not enjoy the movie as much as I wanted to. I found it interesting that I simply never could decide if the father was or was not the kidnapper and killer. Like others, I felt the last few minutes seemed a little contrived. These didn't ring true to me and that's why I have to give a lower rating. As too often happens with Korean movies, the police are not exactly covered in glory here. I'm not sure how I feel about the final twist either. Was this really necessary?
