Extreme Job

Started off very strong through a series of slapstick scenes, but quickly loses steam as the story went on. A group of very likable cops with a great concept sounds like a combination that can do no wrong, but quite quickly you realize the film lacks memorable scenes and twists in the plot. The Chinese version of the film is stronger in both its cinematography and story that you feel the Korean version exists just to be there, but doesn't offer anything substantial. The bad guys are painfully one-dimensional and lacks personality. There are no doubt comedic moments sprinkled throughout, but there is not enough meat for the film to be remembered.

It is comedy but also packed in action. If you're not person that so into Korean movies, you might experience effort to adapt with Korean accent and gesture. But after 15 minutes you would get there for no doubt. Thumbs up for all actors and director.

Somehow it touched me by one scene when original sound track from legendary A Better Tomorrow was in it. I laughed alone since I guess none of other spectators in theater aware of it.

Again, everyone is perfectly in the right place to produce this movie.

Extreme Job is a refreshing breather from reality and emotionally heavy content dominating the industry. Genuinely funny and entertaining- although utterly ridiuclous, the humour is well-executed with a charming ensemble cast. The characters, the direction, the climax, and the conflict come together flawlessly creating this unique film.

This movie has plenty of twists and turns...and does not disappoint. I suspected a lot of things halfway through because I've come to expect it of these types of movies but I still enjoyed it. What's more interesting is the actors that I keep seeing pop up in varying roles. For instance I'd just seen one of the actors as a very chillingly convincing serial killer and another as a contract killer/cop and both were very different in this film. Love the variety! Overall this movie has a good mix of comedy, mystery, drama and suspense.

This is a light-hearted action/comedy movie, with emphasis on "Comedy".

It doesn't take itself serious, it's funny, entertaing and pretty enjoyable.

Don't read anything about the plot, some reviews here reveal almost everything. It's an old fashioned action/comedy, some scenes remind me Bud Spencer/Terence Hill movies. A movie suitable for the whole family.

Recommended for everyone.
