6/10
I care very little about his treatise on obsession and the ethics of duty. It's a detective film that I easily forget. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review William Schwartz HanCinema Aug 20, 2019
While Tae-oh would obviously like us to believe that he's some sort of psychopathic criminal mastermind, we see pretty consistently that the man is just, well, really petty and obviously starved for attention. Go to Full Review Adam Patterson Film Pulse Jul 7, 2019

3/5
Both actors handle their roles wonderfully. Kim Yoon-seok's eyes flicker with intelligence underneath a world-weary face while Ju's killer Kang is a compelling mix of bravado, menace and psychotic rage. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Dec 2, 2021 The best Korean movie. See more Dec 22, 2018 An excellent crime/drama/thriller based on factual events. Kim Yoon-seok's performance as a calm detective and Ju Ji-hoon portrayal of a psychopathic killer were convincing. The story was compelling without much action scenes. The film's winning formula was based on the good plot with lots of thinking. If you enjoy mystery novels, you will not miss this one. See more Read all reviews
