What surprises there are are mostly of the pleasant variety, starting with the tone of intelligent sincerity alongside the glowing red pupils and projectile vomiting.

More care was seemingly put into the lighting than the scripting of scenes.

At over two hours, all this takes far too long, frittering away the frights and fun in too much somberly nonsensical dialogue and incongruous maudlin moments.

"The Divine Fury" is more impressive than substantial, but Kim Joo-hwan has managed to combine all those elements in a package that somewhat works, at least in terms of entertainment.

The Divine Fury manages to take cliches and spin genre gold out of them.

What makes the film stand out is that it works on both a theological level and a secular, psychological one, with each bolstering the other in a way few films attempt.

The Divine Fury (2019) is a 129-minute-long South Korean action/horror/thriller I hired from my local library which I saw in May 2026. I have three criticisms of this film: one is a personal issue and the other two are filmic. The personally based criticism is that I am an atheist, and this film takes religiosity too seriously. That’s on me. I love Constantine so go figure. The film-based criticisms. First, this film is 20 minutes too long. Scenes lack economy. All of them. Second. The bad guys can time/place shift yet in the final battle the Dark Bishop does not use that technique. Aiyaiyai. That said, one of my fav scenes is where a bad guy time/place shifts in a carpark, it’s brief yet brilliant. Rewatch? No. Recommend? No. 5/10.

Quite strange plot with plenty of holes and an odd soundtrack.

this was great; i'm not sure why critics hated on it so much. it's maybe a little long & kind of drags in a few places, but there's plenty of action & the action is great. more exorcism movies should involve martial arts, haha.
