CineTv Contest: deliver us from evil/Libranos del Mal [ENG/ESP]@yasmarit1005d
Hello, a pleasure to be here in this new Contest in which well it is not one of the types of movies that I like because they cause me a lot of fear or simply are not to my liking, I prefer suspense, comedy and romance, however for this contest I remembered to have seen a movie that has suspense but is also horror, called deliver us from evil, where an excellent actor like Edgar Ramirez participates..
The film is based on demons that possess people and which must be exorcised, which is the case that the father (Edgar Ramirez) must do, which begins to be certified as they begin to arise different cases where people begin to act strangely, have physical changes in the eyes or have irrational actions, The paintings begin to change and energies appear that affect the environment around them, according to Christian theology the idea that this exists leaves the mentality of the human being, but here the priests are prepared for it and begin to evaluate the possibility that this exists and fight it.
The reality of the film is extremely chilling, the way in which demons appear, people change or have to perform exorcisms make your skin crawl, this story does not escape from reality because in the time of Christ the idea that demons roamed the earth and possessed bodies was more real than fictional and which should be purified with holy water and words in Latin was recommended, also the way in which the Christ twisted or the virgin bled were signs that evil was present. When I saw it I was really interested because of the Catholicism theme, the exorcism and the suspense, but I didn't think it would have chilling moments.
This kind of movie I tend not to watch, I remember that when I saw it I did it with my sister and with the light on, because if I turn it off then I do not sleep, because I think the bed moves or at night someone is near or the place feels cold, so this kind of movie I prefer to avoid them, although here was an exception.
Thank you very much for reading it. I hope you like it. Any comments I'll be glad to answer and if you want to know more about me I leave my:

Hola, un gusto estar por acá en este nuevo Concurso en el cual bueno no es uno de los tipos de películas que me gusta ya que me causan mucho miedo o simplemente no son de mi agrado prefiero suspenso, comedia y romanticismo, sin embargo para este concurso me acorde de haber visto una película que tiene suspenso pero también es de terror, llamada líbranos de mal, en donde participa un excelente actor como es Edgar Ramírez.
La película se basa en demonios que poseen a personas y los cuales hay que exorcizar, que es el caso que debe hacer el padre (Edgar Ramírez), el cual comienza a ser certificado a medida que comienzan a surgir diferentes caso donde las personas comienzan actuar raro, presentan cambios físicos en los ojos o tener acciones irracionales, las pinturas comienzan a modificarse y aparecer energías que afectan el medio que los rodea, conforme a la teología cristina la idea de que esto exista sale de la mentalidad del ser humano, pero acá los sacerdotes se preparan a ello y comienzan a evaluar la posibilidad de que esto existe y combatirlo.
La realidad de la película es sumamente escalofriante, la manera en cómo los demonios aparecen, las personas cambian o tienen que realizar los exorcismo hacen que se erice la piel, esta historia no se escapa de la realidad ya que en los tiempos de cristo la idea de que los demonios vagaban en la tierra y que poseyeran cuerpos era más real que ficcioso y los cuales debían ser purificados con agua bendita y palabras en latín era lo recomendable, también la manera en cómo el Cristo se retorcía o la virgen sangraba eran señales de que estaba presente el mal. Cual la vi de verdad me intereso por la temática del catolicismo, el exorcismo y el suspenso, pero no pensé que tendría momentos escalofriantes.
Este tipo de película tiendo a no verlo, recuerdo que cuando lo vi lo hice con mi hermana y con la luz prendida, porque si la apago luego no duermo, porque creo que se mueve la cama o en la noche está cerca alguien o se siente frio el lugar, así que este tipo de película prefiero obviarlas, aunque acá fue una excepción.
›Deliver us from Evil (2020), an excellent korean action film.@nbarrios671260d
Spies, assassins, kidnappings and large doses of action, this film is an explosive mix of genres brought to us by director Hong Won-chan, with a tormented anti-hero, a violent Japanese gangster from a yakuza clan and a transsexual who will play a prominent role in this story. These three characters are involved in an environment of revenge, kidnapping and organ trafficking. The film is called Deliver Us From Devil (2020).
The film is set in South Korea, Japan and Thailand and when watching it the viewer is able to distinguish predominantly cold colors in the photography, (South Korea, and Japan) which we immediately relate to the melancholic character of the protagonist.
In Thailand the colors are warmer, there is a lot of yellow tonality that manages to convey the danger before the different action scenes. The neon lights also stand out to recreate the urban and night environments of Bangkok.
The action scenes are spectacular, clear, very rough and forceful with great demonstrations of martial arts and fights with knives, machetes and scalpels. There is a lot of graphic violence.
The action choreographies are great and brutal showing action scenes between the antagonists and clashes with criminal groups of quite numerical superiority against these two characters.
The protagonist, In-nam, is a tough and tormented antihero, former spy for the South Korean secret services and current contract killer, must face one last assignment in Japan. In this last job, he discovers a secret from his past that forces him to face a terrible adventure in Thailand, where he must rescue a nine-year-old daughter, whom he did not know he had, from a criminal gang specialized in the extraction and sale of human organs.
The man killed by our protagonist was the brother of a dangerous man named Ray, nicknamed The Butcher. He seeks revenge and begins a relentless search for his brother's killer.
Yoo-yi, a South Korean transsexual woman based in Thailand, helps In-nam to get his daughter by guiding him through the city of Bankok and serving as a translator, at first for money to pay for the sex change operation, but later she helps him out of remorse and conscience. She is the nicest character in the film.

Hwang Jung-ming plays In-Nam, Lee Jung-jae plays the sadistic yakuza ganster Ray and Park Jung-min is the kind transsexual Yoo-yi,
Its director Hong Won-Chan, was one of the screenwriters of the highly praised South Korean films The Chaser, The Yellow Sea and Confession of Murder. This is his second film after an appreciable film framed within the Slasher genre of 2015 called Office.
Deliver Us From Devil is a powerful Asian action film with an impeccable technical workmanship that shows large doses of violence with quite solvent interpretations, well filmed and it is also a good story about personal redemption. It has good pace and tension, as well as spectacular action scenes, it is also very entertaining, it is highly recommended with nothing to envy to Hollywood movies.
I highly recommend this film, a big greeting to all the CineTv community, I wish you good health and prosperity in this year 2023.
When I first read about this movie I thought it was an Asian remake of a movie with the same name from 2014. However, once I read the summary of the plot I realized this was a completely different story that had nothing to do with the 2014 movie.
Deliver Us from Evil is an action movie that involves a large criminal organization, a talented hitman, and a powerful mobster looking for revenge. Each of them have their own objectives and agenda, and they will clash with each other in violent and bloody ways.
This convoluted criminal story begins with the kidnapping of a young kid. The criminal organization has very deep tentacles and the operation they are running is not only very perverse but also very well planned.
The talented hitman will eventually get involved in the kidnapping but not to facilitate it but rather to stop it and save the child. There will be personal reasons that explain why he worries so much about this child he had never seen before.
The other important character is the mobster looking for revenge, basically, he wants to avenge the death of his brother. He knows who is the hitman responsible for that crime, and he is willing to do anything it takes to destroy him. He has the resources, contacts, and skills to achieve his deadly objective.
There are a lot of action scenes in the movie which was obviously expected. However, I didn't like the fact that in each action scene, the punches were accelerated to make them look more violent. For a while, the film reminded me of the Taken movies although the ending was quite different.
I enjoyed the film but it hardly provided anything original. It was just another action film full of crime and with a revenge subplot. If you are looking for a fast-paced flick you should consider watching this one. It also has beautiful cinematography and entertaining characters.
The best
Entertaining film.
Original characters.

The worst
Fast-paced punches made it seem like a not-so-serious movie.
