This is a fast paced and action packed movie from start to finish and is also engaging from start to finish. Judging by the trailer I was expecting a movie that is lazy and didn't have as much action and explosions as the trailer made it seem. But this is one of those movies where it surpasses the trailer and goes beyond. The comedic elements are done right and the right moments to the point I couldn't help but have a grin on my face while watching and some parts got me laughing. Sure this movie is absurd and over the top but that is the direction it's trying to go and it knows which direction it wants to head and it works. The actress Kang Hye-Won is not just a pretty face but she is a good actress that can pull off comedic roles such as the one in this. Even the action sequences are done very well for a movie that is made outside of Hollywood and I was impressed, especially with the CGI scenes. This movie reminded me of a comedic and over the top version of the movies "Speed" and "Transporter 3". So this movie is almost a perfect blend of action and slapstick comedy that is so very entertaining from start to finish.

I was in an action-movie mood when I went to see the movie "Quick" while in Seoul. A great action movie is what I got! I like the "Fast & Furious" movies because of the fast cars, and I liked this movie because of the fast motorcycles. I can never get enough of crotch-rockets zooming through high-speed traffic, causing major car pile-ups along the way. The action is very real, and it looks like it, too.
"Quick" was special-effects heavy, but tastefully done. I like when I watch movies and I'm not sure whether or not what I just saw was real or CG. It does a great job of playing on that line.
Even with an action movie, the plot is strong with a solid story line. Everything blowing up has a point to it.
Overall, very good movie, and I look forward to analyzing more in the future when it comes out on DVD.

I didn't expect much due to the low average rating, but I ended up very pleasantly surprised. This movie is absolutely hilarious. Lots of hysterical characters and suprisingly good, totally over the top action scenes and stunts. I definitely recommend you watch it, preferably with a friend.

This movie from South Korea is easily one of the best movies of the year 2011 and I hope it gets further attention and a world wide release in the rest of the world within the next month. It's sure that I will try anything to purchase a copy of this stunning movie that I saw by pure coincidence on a plane flight a few days ago.
The movie tells the story of a motorcycle courier that gets in a dangerous situation when a madman forces him to deliver a couple of bombs to several addresses. If he refuses, he risks the life of his old love that wears a motorcycle helmet that will explode if the courier arrives to late, menaces the madman or gets involved with the police. The whole scenario leads to a stunning rat race with a furious and emotional showdown involving philosophical topics such as life, death, love, friendship, forgiveness, truth and lies.
This entertaining movie offers many different styles. First of all, it has some great slapstick humour that made me laugh really hard a couple of times. It's rather hard to make me laugh but I really appreciate this kind of humour thanks to many amusing characters and a very good acting.
As a next point, this movie has some spectacular motorcycle action scenes reminding me of "The fast and the furious", "Speed" or "Twelve rounds". This movie doesn't give you a break and is an exciting high speed adventure.
This film even has more to offer as there are some great suspense scenes that will keep you on the edge of your seat and the story offers a couple of interesting elements and introduces some interesting connections between the different characters of the movie.
In the end, let's note that the movie is filmed in a very modern way and is a true high quality product that might please to a large audience in the world. Anybody that likes spectacular action movies has found his or her new bible with this movie.
On a personal note, I fell once again in love with the charming and cute female actors from South Korea in this movie and the authentic male characters.
If you're able to get your hands on a copy of this movie, pay the price you need to pay and you surely won't disappointed. The movie is energizing, fresh and highly entertaining. South Korea proves once again that they actually make the best movies in the whole world and they do succeed in any genre as they prove with this outstanding action flick.

The version I watched while in the original Korean language has been cut down to 80m and it shows.
OK, so it's not the most densely plotted film but the edits take a lot of the exposition away, characters suddenly join the chase scenes with no clue as to how.
It's still a fun film but I'd much rather it made sense!.
