It makes more sense, and has all the action.

--The only problem is that U can tell it has inaccurate translations, like so many asian movies.

acting is excellent, action is actually alit over the top, music is spot on, script is very good, ending is predictable, some original humor in it with a little car being a running gag throughout movie

Its got some originality in some parts, and some modern applicability with tech and on line gaming

A mystery ultra action fest that even a woman (who likes mysteries) may be able to enjoy. My wife enjoyed it, and she usually avoids the standard man movie fares.

My quick rating - 8,8/10. WOW. It has been a long time since I have seen a movie that hits on all cylinders like this. Each aspect, be it drama, action, sci-fi, mystery, basically you name it minus horror gets touched upon and brilliantly. I can't say anything about the acting since it most likely is fine, but reading it takes away from that. I don't judge acting when I don't understand the actors and can't trust the subtitles to be accurate. The movie is about a virtual reality online game champion, and team leader (i say that since it has to do with the movie) who gets framed for a murder. To the extents of the frame job would be criminal for me to describe, you just have to see it. Basically he is imprisoned for this, and while there, he insists his innocence and befriends a serial killer to get some advice on how to get out. Well, the movie would be ok with it being just about that, but he does of course need to prove his innocence, so once out he hooks up with his online team to do just that. Now my description is vague, at best, for a good reason. To give up anything more would not do justice to how well this movie works. The visuals are fantastic, each scene either perfectly believable in the real world, or completely out there on a tech level, or even a bit beautiful in a fantasy world. The action scenes are top notch, and as with most movies from the orient, this being Korean, the scenes are long and very detailed. Do yourself a favor and check this movie out, one of the few times I hope Hollywood gets their hands on this and can even close to touch the quality of this with some American actors. I don't need to pick anyone out, just I could see this being a phenom in the right hands (easier to follow for us who only speak English). Then again, it already was.

Forensic beater , this movie beat the entire forensic department , very clever and high level work .if you are into Forensic science Do not miss this Movie

Once again Korean Cinema offers you ( at least ) three film genres in one film. Lets see - Cyber Thriller, Tough Prison, Buddy Movie, Action-Comedy ..make it four! The tone of the movie is consequently uneven as it goes for laughs in places then pours on some brutal scenes. It could have used a bit of a trim in the edit suite as two hours is just too long to maintain tension. On the plus side there are some nice cyber visuals and a very pantomime villain. If you want to stick the noodle in neutral it wont make any difference as the plot is just a thin excuse for the action sequences. Oh and theres some McGyver type scenes too - there's another Genre!

Fantastic movie! Didn't know what to expect but it had a great story, good pacing and spot-on acting by Ji Chang Wook and the rest of the cast. The movie definitely has its serious moments which I personally think was necessary to invest the audience with the sense of justice that Kwon Yoo, the protagonist, feels is due to him. Great edge of your seat action, right amount of suspense to make you wonder about what will happen next, at times laugh-out-loud wit and comic sense, and great acting by the cast. And of course, all of this brought on by great execution by director Park Kwang Hyun.

Movies like this make me think positively about the future of Korean cinema because outside the smoke and mirrors of domestic and international awards, what Korean cinema lacks is tight execution and good old storytelling of otherwise creative concepts. Sometimes I feel Korean movies focus too much on sensationalism (be it gruesomeness or eroticism bordering on pornography), technical camera work and production value rather than storytelling, character development and execution. It's nice to see a movie that is well- made and reminds us of the fun of going to the movies. Nicely done.
