Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy A fun movie although as it turns out Park Chul-Hee was right with every word in his introduction. I wouldn't go so far myself to rate this above "The Host" or "Exiled" but it's surely an easy movie to like. Jan 24, 2020 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Αn unusual film that combineσ Japanese aesthetics in terms of character creation and script, as exemplified in films like Sabu's "Postman Blues" and Toyoda's "9 Souls", with notions and tendencies from Korean action thriller and melodrama.

Audience Member nicely executed. one of the best k-movies i have ever seen! shin ha kyun is definitely amazing here. and the ost is definitely pleasing to the ears, bella ciao and bolero. don't watch this if you're not into dark humour. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining action movie--Reasonably competent !! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Just a little too long and dragging. Could be condensed a little more. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Killar is a hitman with a speech impediment, and only kills the rude with his partner Ballet. Ever since he was a a child, Killar has been a mute. With the funds he receives from the contract killings, he will be able to get a surgery that lets him talk. This is a pretty cool concept for a film, but it squanders it with a scattered story and aimless plotting. Killar has plenty of kills and cool moments, but the movie is unfocused and goes all over the place with a hefty running time of two hours. The worst part is the atrocious ending. Throwing away everything that the film builds up on, ludicrous twists and reveals pop up out of nowhere and it ends on a very poor ending. It wasn't just because it was a sad ending, its almost as if they wanted tot be sad a lot on purpose, and tacked on all sorts of reveals that feel cliche and unnecessary. Despite the good acting and premise, No Mercy for the Rude is a bad fusion of an action thriller, romance, and dark comedy. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member nicely executed. one of the best k-movies i have ever seen! shin ha kyun is definitely amazing here. and the ost is definitely pleasing to the ears, bella ciao and bolero. don't watch this if you're not into dark humour. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member only chose this on a quiet tired night because it was labelled action-comedy. Boy were we taken aback by the gore and dark undertones of the world of gangsters & assassins. The childhood subplot was nice and ultimately predictable, as was the ending -- I only wished that they didn't shed so much blood in the process, but that's my own fault for picking this up. For touching assassin stories, I'd stick with Leon (& stay far away from this and the likes of Kill Bill). Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
