Does the job

A novel feature from South Korea, starring that country's megastar Hwang Jung Min as himself! Although the concept was novel for me, this actually turns out to be a remake of a Chinese film starring Andy Lau that I haven't seen, called SAVING MR WU. The story is simplicity in itself: Jung Min finds himself kidnapped by a violent criminal gang and has to use his wiles to turn the tables on his kidnappers. The outside, police procedural scenes play out as suspensefully as the hostage scenario itself, and the actors give typically good performances (especially the girl from SQUID GAME, who I'm very fond of). It's not a perfect film, coming across as predictable at times, but like much Korean cinema, it does the job.

Just ok

The movie was ticking along quite well than it just went all stupid in the last 10-20mins. Was going to give it a much higher score but the last 10mins were just silly and i mean silly especially from the police side of things. You'll see what i mean when you watch it without giving it away.
