Believer 2

Believer 2 (2023) movie is good though except the story. I am really disappointed with the story of this movie! The story was really confusing to understand for me! I do not know if anybody else feels the same as me. Action moments and scene was super and excellent! My complain is only about the story. I can not remember if i did watched "The Believer 1" or not. If not then my interest already died in this part. In a movie the story and action moments are really matters, and in this movie this thing is messed up! Hope they will make better story in future.

They swapped actors for two of the main characters since the first film, I watched half of this one before realising it so don't make my mistake or you'll be totally lost! The woman who plays Mr Lee's daughter is like a cartoon, totally hammy acting. No huge twists like the first film, and total lack of tension. Not even sure who I'm rooting for by the end of the film. There's a scene where three of the main characters who are all enemies are discussing their final plan together, I couldn't explain what the hell was going on even if my life depended on it! If you enjoyed the first film - leave it there, give this one a miss.

If like me, you liked the first movie, then don't watch this sequel. It just deconstructs everything from the first movie, including the excellent plot twist, ruins characters, and has a TERRIBLE ending. I have no idea why this was greenlit, and who thought this was a good idea. It has some decent gunfights, but that's the only good thing about it.

BELIEVER 2 is a follow-up to the 2018 original that carries straight on from the action of the first movie. It's been a fair few years since I saw that one so I was left understandably confused by the first fifteen minutes, but once things work out this becomes easy to follow, adopting a typical template of rival drugs gangs battling for supremacy while the cops try to arrest all of them. It's vividly violent and gritty throughout, with visceral action dominating in the form of mass shootings and brutal executions. The usual quality you expect from Korean cinema is present and correct here, and if it falls short of brilliance, then it's still an undeniably involving production.

The first movie, "Believer 2018" was quite interesting due to its suspense & plot twist. This sequel, unfortunately, was a total let-down. Not even A list stars like Cho Jin Woong, Han Hyo Joo or even veteran supporting actor Jo Han Chul could save this film.

The continuation of the storyline was lame. Han Hyo Joo just acted like a madwoman. Cho Jin Woong's character behaved like a rookie policeman, a downgrade of the heroic cop from the first film. Cha Seung Won was still the same villain as the first movie.

The characters spoke so much Mandarin but unconvincingly as the Korean accent was still obvious. There's even a guy who looks like Xi Jin Ping here.

The standout performer of this show has got to be Oh Seung Hoon, who replaced Ryu Joon Yeol as Rak. He played out the backstory of Rak well and performed as good as his predecessor. I was about to give up halfway, but Oh Seung Hoon carried the show well.

In a nutshell, don't bother watching this, unless you have too much time to kill.
