Bad Guys

A detective who's daughter has been murdered heads up a team of serving prisoners to try and solve crimes which the ordinary police cannot. All the prisoners have links with his past and one is a ruthless gang leader, one is a hitman and one is a psychotic serial killer, so an eclectic team. Lines are crossed in the pursuit of murderers and intense friction within the team adds to the drama. Well acted and an interesting story but the unrelenting darkness of the subject matter episode after episode makes it a hard watch for me personally.

Bad Guys was so incredibly enjoyable, from it's stellar cast, fantastic acting, amazing fight sequences, interesting characters, and a well written thriller/mystery story that keeps you hooked to the end. All the story lines came together to form a brilliant conclusion that leaves you satisfied as a viewer. While all the actors are really good and bring their a-game to the table, I just have to say that Hae-Jin Park really shines in this as the psychopathic Jung-Moon. I saw Hae-Jin in "Man to Man" first, and I noticed he had this ability to really shutter his eyes and hide all his emotions. That ability is WAY creepier in this show, and honestly it was so brilliant how he would often say nothing at all but his eyes conveyed so much while also being totally cold-blooded and emotionless. It honestly left me breathless many times while watching this, this role felt like it was written for Hae-Jin. There were a few a times that characters would be injured in a way that wasn't necessarily survivable, but other than that, this show was absolutely brilliantly executed. An 8.5 rounded up to a 9.

I started with bad guys vile city upto 8 episodes. There's so many brawls and fight scenes which I often like but it lacks interesting characters. On the other hand, the first season's characters are way better but the plot is not that much. They try to confused the viewers and give it a twist but the perpetrators were obvious. I also lost count of how many times Park Hae Jin got stabbed or shot.

At last the flix gets a winner. Hard to follow all the names with subtitles but the storylune is good with solid action. Just finished episode 2 so hoping for more of the same.

This show rocks. They're trynna catch one killer so they let out 3 other killers that kill like a thousand people to catch the first one. If they'd have just let the original killer go on murdering the body count woulda been exponentially lower lol. It's fun. Wish the music was better (2014 techno dubstep) and the fight sequences/action in general were better directed and choreographed. But I'm watching bc the trailer for the newer season looks sick so I hope they correct those things in Vile City.
