The Unjust

Well, first time I totally hated the film because firstly I'm not a korean speaker and the film is dialogue heavy, specially in the beginning but as soon as you understand the first 15-20 minutes of storyline then the rest keeps you hooked itself.. I've never been happier being proved wrong to myself. A must watch film, specially if you are a crime thriller junky..

Everyone has a dark side, and no one in politics is impeccable. Rigidity scolds in front of him, while gentleness strips off and kneels down. Only those who can bend and stretch out can go on. But the final winner is the one closer to power.

I decided to review this title, because of the other reviewers who did not give the film what it deserves.

As someone said: this is a crime film, without clearly "good" or "bad" characters. Sometimes it's a bit hard to follow the plot, but I don't think it's a problem. When you finish watching the movie, all will be clear.

The movie is gripping, ruthless and satirical. There are some very funny moments and one will find cynicism in almost EVERY SCENE. Modern grotesque, great plot and AMAZING performances from the leads are the pros of this film. You will most likely be gutted by both the complexity and "charisma" of those 3 main characters.

Pay attention to why is this movie titled: "The Unjust".

I absolutely recommend this to everyone. Though it lacks the "tricks" of cinematography, it's still very stylish in plot and powerful in execution. Pure entertainment.

Great cast with many fine, veteran actors, several playing against type. But for me the plot was often confusing and sometimes annoyingly predictable. However, the power corrupts theme and ending work well. I would recommend it for a light evening viewing.

Great potential this complex story, very unusual and that should have been remade by the Hollywood film industry I guess. It would have been made. But it remains a solid crime flick from South Korea anyway; a bit confused but efficient.
