Chad de Guzman TIME Magazine 01/03/2024
Other than the action sequences that get your blood pumping, Bloodhounds stands out for the entertaining rapport and sympathetic dynamic between its two leads that make audiences root for their success. Go to Full Review

Directed by Kim Joo-hwan, Bloodhounds delivers some great action sequences. It is bloody, it is gory, and it is definitely impactful. Go to Full Review

4/5
The chemistry between actors and tasty moral dilemmas push Bloodhounds to the next level. It's gritty and driving, but it's pretty brutal, too. Go to Full Review
Nuha Hassan Nuha Hassan (Medium) 09/08/2023
The series has fascinating characters with moral and immoral motives. But the overlong episodes become repetitive, with enough time to flesh out the characters. Go to Full Review

3/4
"Bloodhounds" offers sweet bromance. But this K-drama also has a brutal take on morality. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
It’s exciting instead of complex and visceral instead of emotional. That might not constitute a total knockout, but it’ll carry you for a few rounds if you get on its level. Go to Full Review

Mahnoor T @shrody 4d Has my heart. It's thrilling, though the first 2 episodes kinda frustrated me. I was so emotional on all of their deaths. They were my favs See more Mandy S @RT98643774 May 3 This season was so awful, the series does not accurately reflect the reality of what occurs in real life. Every scene is just infuriating ,i just hated every episode. I hope the next season if it comes does better than this. Pure disappointment See more Michael E. @ibeatu123 Apr 26 Absolutely brilliant show! You won’t be disappointed!!! See more Ben T @RT62868945 Apr 25 I stopped watching this after episode 2 of season 1, after this male character gets on his knees and begs this girl to give him a job🤮. Should of known this was a woke misandry show, korea bent the knee to woke garage awhile ago I guess. See more saad T. @Stayeh Apr 13 Blood hounds amazing 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊 See more Antonio Z @RT14136193 Apr 9 Bloodhounds is a very solid action series, with well-executed, realistic fight scenes — great for martial arts fans. It has a bit of a Cobra Kai feel, but rougher, with a subtle Eastern sense of discipline and respect. The violence can be intense at times, but it fits the story. More importantly, there’s a strong focus on friendship, loyalty, and resilience, which gives the series real balance. It doesn’t try to reinvent anything — it just does it well. A great pick if you like action with substance. See more Read all reviews
