A Testemunha

I don't know why people haven't reviewed this movie yet. Like other South Korean movies I've seen, this one didn't disappoint.

The movie starts with Sang-Hoon coming home from having some drinks with his work colleages, when he gets home he hears a woman's scream, when he looks put of the window he sees a man hitting a woman with a hammer. He is shocked and doesn't know how to react when the murderer makes eye contact with him.

The next day the woman is found dead and the police is investigating the case. Since he might be the only witness that night, he decides not to tell the police anything, but the murderer saw him and is now after him. Now Sang-Hoon will have to protect his family from the murderer.

The movie is packed with action and suspense moments. The actors are great, did an excellent job. The murderer's character is a bit undeveloped what we know is that he likes to kill. But well, it's nice to find a movie that uses different ideas, hammer instead of guns, storms, snow.

The movie was overall really good, entertaining, nice way to want to spend 2 hours.

With a killer on the loose and The Witness paralyzed by fear this movie is as much an indictment on the false security and anonymity of modern living as it is a crime thriller. This is a crime movie, but it is more than that as a man discovers that everything he aimed for and wanted to protect was taking away his humanity. With a killer easily evading what seem to be efficient but disconnected cops the story seems a bit contrived but overall worth the time to watch and the action continues from start to finish.

This film is about a man who witnesses a murder from a window of his home.

While I'm not interested in giving a long drawn out review, I will say that this was worth the watch. The story is relatable. The film is well made and the actors did well with their roles. It isn't without a few flaws but nothing that couldn't be overlooked. If you like dramatic thrillers, you'll probably be please with this. It ended up being a great find for me and I really enjoyed it.

A killer who isn't shy to kill in public places. The film took a while to warm up to, but it got pretty good eventually. The killer was cool as with most Korean thrillers. The protagonist really grinded my gears at times, just a total wimp and honestly should be locked away for accomplice to murder. Worth a one time watch.

This is not the best thriller/suspense movie i have ever seen but it is pretty decent. The man playing the witness did an excellent job potraying the anxiety filled feelings and emotions of a witness. The movie had a few flaws here and there but overall it is a good movie to watch although it goes on a relatively slower pace.
