A Face Obscura do Crime

What a great crime thriller movie yet again from South Korea. The suspense and mystery throughout the 1hr 50mins kept me glued to the screen on this one. The acting from the two leads was top notch and didn't disappoint from start to finish. If you love SK movies you'll love this one.

Without camshaken fighting and fast chasing scene, Dark Figure of Crime did more than enough to keep me on the edge.

The film started fast, but as long as you catch up with the pace, it's very understandable. I would say the title need a bit more in order to compatible to the film, which I would expect completely different story line when I read the title. Overall, great film

Excellent crime thriller about a detective seeking further punishment of a convicted murderer who despite confessing to further crimes, uses legal loopholes and the statute of limitations, coupled with half truths and misinformation to evade justice. Kim Yoon-seok's performance was outstanding as usual and rising star Ju Ji-hoon was also very impressive, balancing his performance well. Based on a true story, strongly recommend.

Claimed as a film based on a true story about a detective who investigates the case of a killer in the city of Busan, South Korea.

Without further ado, from the start the film immediately directs us to a series of murder cases that have been committed by the killer based on his confession to the detective. Cunningly, the killer tried to play with the detective with confusing statements. Until a bright spot where his actions can be proven by the police and increase the weight of the murderer's punishment.

Typical of South Korean films where police and killers are always in touch. Even though we rarely find iconic films like Memories of Murder (2003) and The Chaser (2008), but 'Dark Figure of Crime' can provide an interesting spectacle. Moreover, the film stars South Korean veteran Kim Yoon-seok (The Chaser, The Yellow Sea, Hwayi: The Monster Boy, Fog Sea and other famous titles) with the opposite of a rising actor Ju Ji-hoon.
