Today I selected the movie The Chaser (2008) aka Chugyeogja for the daily movie recommendation which is directed by Hong-jin Na which is his first film besides short films and he is a South Korean director known for his recent film The Wailing (2016) which was a damn good movie which I saw this year. Hong-jin Na is a great director and is at the beginning of his career having just 3 movies so far of which I must see The Yellow Sea (2010) aka Hwanghae which looks interesting from the description and I have great chances to like it If I liked the others from him. Let's get started and see why I liked this movie and I'll explain a few things about it.
The film starts with Joong-ho Eom which is a pimp and a ex-detective who lost two of the prostitutes believing that they ran away from him or were sold and he trying to find them for his business to recover from the deadlock.
The movie starts pretty well not being boring and becomes more and more interesting until the end and we've already got used to such South Korean and Asian films for some time now and they have a different style from the rest, many of the movies being very brutal and that's what I saw in a lot of Asian movies and of course Quentin Tarantino is inspiring a lot from such films and many of the Asian movies are among the best movies he has seen.
Even if not all actors were at the same level as the main ones, they have done their best and I mean Jung-woo Ha which I also saw in the movie The Handmaiden, Yeong-hie Seo and Yun-seok Kim. Many people complained about the end of the movie but I will not do that knowing what kind of film I'm watching I was expecting that the final to be different and I do not want to give more details because i don't want to ruin the movie for those who have not seen it yet. In conclusion if you want to see a good action-thriller movie The Chaser it may be what you are looking for, and I'm curious about your opinions,also don't forget to request the movie genre which you like to be recommended for tomorrow.
My rating 8/10
