First of all, this movie is a classic 2/10 (My sister wants me to give it a 5/10 because the storyline was good.)
But those tricks? Those tricks? Who do they think their audience was? Some two-year-old? What was that?
Ngl, this is the first Korean movie I watched, and I almost fell asleep mid-way.
Every time the action scenes pop up, I and my sister would pick up our phones and go online to distract us from the craziness they were about to show.
The storyline was good though. I mean it’s not a new script, it’s literally the only action script Hollywood has in their store room😒
The race mixture in the movie was excellent. They always bring a not-so-good white or black actor in their movies but this time, they brought an actual talent and the conversation was clear enough.
I personally don’t have any issues with the storyline or their acting scenes but those film tricks… those damn film tricks.
There were so many unrealistic scenes that made me almost shut down my laptop.
The scene that left me speechless was when the plane blew up and they fought in the air with no parachute attached to them. They were fighting in the air for more than 30min with no plans of actually crashing.
I don’t mean them fighting in the plane before it was blown up, I mean the plane had already blown up and they were fighting in the sky like birds.
For a second, I thought I was watching a Bollywood movie.
I can bet that the bullet that was shot at him was more than 200 and not even one touched him or the girl. I mean, what is he? An invincible man?
The train scenes…😭 so many bullets shots at him and not even one went through his skin. Did you see the number of North Korean soldiers he was fighting with? They were jumping from train to train and only the soldiers kept dying. Who is he? Thanos?
The scene where he jumped from a motorcycle to a train on a very high mountain was giving Bollywood.
All those killings? The blood? The naked humans? The trick scenes? What was the reason? Do we look that stupid?
Who else saw the ending? The bridge that collapsed? I want you to know that they survived that bridge collapse, I’ve not seen part two but I can promise you no one died.
My source? Dude trust me.
If he can survive all those bullets and knives and explosions and that weird thing in his head, then he is definitely going to survive that bridge collapse.
Funny enough, I always enjoy the actor’s drama, he does action series so well but this one, it’s just not it.
Anyways, let me give you a Korean movie to clear your mind.
“The Witch Subversion - Part 1.” and “The Witch, the other one - Part 2.”It’s not available on Netflix yet but you can find it on Dramacool or probably Netnaija. Part 1 was released in 2018 and Part 2 came out this year. It’s a 10/10.
