No mercy

I am a fan of good Korean thrillers, and I also have a soft spot for Kyung-gu Sol. The man is a pleasure to watch. 'No Mercy' is not as good as for example 'The Chaser', 'Memories of Murder' or 'I Saw the Devil', but definitely worth watching. Though for the most part the script is not highly original, it still glued me to my chair for two hours, and the end left me in shock. Some things you do see coming, some you don't, and this ending was absolutely perfect and more than I could hope for.

This is the debut movie by director Kim Hyeong-Joon, and IMO, he has put himself on the list. I hope to see some more of him in the future. Kudos!

This movie reminded me of "Se7en" and "Law Abiding Citizen", but it's still a amazing thriller. The mystery revolving around the kidnapped daughter kept me intrigued from beginning to end, although the twist ain't very original the way it's done makes it, it's own. And one heck of a incredible twist it is. The tension between the two character is very high and it really is engrossing to watch, the script writing is also very cleverly done as well. The more stuff the plot uncovers made me more interested bit by bit until the crazy and yet great ending. Some people may gripe about the ending, but I personally really liked it. It's suspenseful thriller that is really worth watching, in fact it's one of the best suspense/thriller I seen this year with a ending that will stay with you for a long time. I don't even want to talk about the plot since the less you know the better. Sure it has few flaws, but overall I highly recommend checking this movie out.

7.8/10

In this edgy, tightly-crafted crime thriller,pathologist Professor Kang Min-ho is retiring to spend more time with his beloved daughter. But when a beautiful, young woman turns up mutilated, he is drawn into one last case.And this case will be the most toughest thing he will do in his life. Revenge story that will take all new level this time and will give more psychological impact. No matter what u will think in between that u will be guessing a lot but the ending is more darker than what u will be expecting in between. One of the cop in it who is always angry and keep shouting to one of his lady colleague will give you few laughs as well am sure..

so watch this crime thriller movie because the ending will not easy to digest..

I don't know, what's with the Korean people about vengeance, but they are damn good at it. At the beginning of the movie I was expecting 'who is the murderer' kind of a thriller. However it goes deeper than that. The motive of the crimes is so obvious, yet the method is unique. Sure there are some distractions like the annoying detective who is angry with everything. Nonetheless the movie is quite good at distracting the viewer and surprising them in the end. It is definitely worth watching. But be warned, you shouldn't be expecting some Old Boy here. Korean movies are not a genre by themselves, so don't be fool enough to compare them with each other just because they are Korean.

Another great Korean crime thriller. It is a thriller that makes you think about choosing sides. More than morality and the righteous nature, it focuses on how each man has a side to it. At your lowest or in selfishness, how one can turn out to be evil. An engaging and quite intense thriller about revenge, pain, emotions and some past.

"No Mercy" is not for the faint-hearted and is more daring than its competitors.

Despite being one of the lesser-known entries in the crime-thriller genre, No MERCY is nevertheless another gem of the category.

If you like Old Boy (2003), then this movie is just the one for you.
