Crime / action movie from Korea. Although Korean cinema is famous for its horror / mystery / drama films, this film is one of the good examples of crime films. A doctor before he realizes it, will be alone between those who will kidnap his pregnant wife and an organized gang, the leader of which, creates "death scenarios" to get rich himself. So the doctor will have to choose a side at some point if he wants to see his wife again. As the script unfolds there are several twists and turns to the end, while the whole film has a lot of action and chase, reminiscent of good films of the genre from American cinema. Without being too complicated the script, the film is quite well structured overall, while it has some clichés like a lonely, chased person to put up with everyone to find justice. Quite a good effort, however, and is definitely recommended.

The Target (2014) is yet another cool action movie coming from South Korea.

As many other South Korean thrillers, the movie shows great sequences, super stunts, cool chases, bloody fist fights, fine acting and relentless fast paced action.

On the other hand, maybe is because i have seen a lot of cinema from South Korea, but i feel that the plot was a little bit predictable, so for me the twist was not that shocking. However, if you are looking for an above the average action flick this movie is just the right thing to watch.

Packed with intense actions, good acting and convincing plot. While a lot of boring dramas and pretentious movies like parasite are overrated, this movie is solid and underrated.

Compare with another Korean action film, I think this film is better than older. The thing give me the most attention is the main actor emotion and his acting. But I think, the director did not want to put all their attention on the main character but rather focus to doctor. So the main actor doesn't have many scenes. The best scene of main actor as I remember is when he take infor from gang and when he came from outside police station (Really I've looking for more action scene this time, but it was not.

Any way I'm looking for more and more tried from Korean action movie like this or better.

An ex-mercenary killer is framed for the murder of a renowned corporate leader. He is accompanied by an ordinary doctor who is desperate to save his abducted pregnant wife and together they embark on a dangerous 36-hour pursuit.
