Audience Member pointless, and without da cool style i expect from a korean movie Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member acted so so well...but the story ran a little tangly. would have loved to see it stick to one single genre, as opposed to jumping all across the board Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member omg.... this was the most brutal movie I have seen, in terms of how far a person can go, how low a person can fall..... but very well made. impactful Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member More drama than gun-fu. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Good movie, first time I seen a Korean Movie like this. There was drug use and even sex. Now i'm not saying that's what I'm into but I've never seen a Korean film like that. Sure other ones have sex in them as well, but this was on a whole nother level Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member This Korean crime thriller reminded me a bit of Fukasaku's Yakuza Papers; it has the same kind of nervous, frenetic energy. A dirty cop and a drug dealer form an uneasy alliance to take down a drug lord... And there's not much more to it than that. The movie rests squarely on the shoulders of the two leads who are fortunately both fantastic; Hwang Jeong-min showed his acting chops as the lawyer in A Good Lawyer's Wife and as the over-the-top villain in A Bittersweet Life, and Ryoo Seung-beom delivers his trademark energetic performance (also watch him in Crying Fist opposite Choi Min-shik). I should add that like the Yakuza Papers flicks, Bloody Tie is often rambling and unfocused, and it veers from tragic drama to comedy a few too many times; with two lessers actors it probably wouldn't have worked at all. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
