Alex Abad-Santos Vox The beauty of The Witch is the dark and sublimely satisfying place Park takes us to, once we realize our hero's true motivation: survival. Jun 19, 2020 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International The deadly charisma of the key performers, notably newcomer Kim Da-mi as the teenage Ja-yoon, should ensure plenty of interest in further chapters in this story. Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Elizabeth Kerr The Hollywood Reporter An often mesmerizing, occasionally kooky but thoroughly entertaining thriller. Jun 28, 2018 Full Review Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene Director Park Hoon-jung and lead actress Kim Da-mi lay the groundwork for something imaginative, violent, and stuffed to the gills with palpable crunch. Sep 10, 2021 Full Review Brent McKnight The Last Thing I See Plenty bloody and brutal and un-freaking-hinged, and full of twists and shifts, the work done earlier gives the rampaging chaos more a more emotional oomph than simply watching cannon fodder villains get dismantled in vicious, gory fashion. Rated: A- Jul 29, 2020 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness ... [writer/director Hoon-jung] Park masterfully weaves each [narrative aspect] into and out of each other until the audience is on the edge of their seat for a ride filled with countless surprises. Rated: 4.5/5 Apr 12, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Thuc N Great acting and cinematogrpahy, the main theme and idea is pretty interesting, the slow pace gives you chills but still brings out a horror feel. The plot could be improved but overall it is enjoyable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Garota em Chamas Rebelião - A Bruxa: parte 1 – A Subversão Assistido: 4-11-23 Elenco: @d_a__m_i @dntlrdl @gominsi @jungdaaeun Modelo: #ficção #fiction #ação #action Duração: 2h 5m Ano: 2018 Minha opinião: Ultimamente tenho me surpreendido com os filmes que tenho visto sem pretensão e este um deles. Filme muito bem feito, efeitos, roteiro, interpretação dos atores. Por isso os coreanos vem se destacando nos cinemas internacionais. Aqui é um dos filmes de mudança genética em crianças, isso não é novidade pois existem outros que segue o mesmo gênero e até Kdorama. O filme todo gira em torno de Goo, que é um dos experimentos e ela foge das instalações do laboratório. Porem nesta fuga ela sofre um acidente e passar a ter aminésia. E acaba indo para uma fazenda e é adotada por ela. Os anos se passam e sua mâe adotiva tem uma doença degenerativa e eles precisam de dinheiro. E quando ela se inscreve em concurso e neste momento aqueles que a procuram, encontram e passam a persegui-la. Com muita luta, tiros e boas coreografias e muita ação e sangue para todo lado com um certo exagero. E muita força de seus poderes. E um final onde o rato na verdade pode ser o gato. Roteiro e enredo muito bem articulado e foge do padrão de Hollywood. Vale apena assistir? Sim, mas cuidado com a faixa etária. Nota: 8,5 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/24 Full Review Joshua m Takes some time to get going but then knocks it out of the park. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/23/23 Full Review DUB B The first half of the movie sees our main hero hunted down for reasons unknown to her. Once she understands, the movie takes off. The action, blood and special effects do little to distract and only make you stay more engaged. Highly recommended! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review John Exury S More action than horror movie. Well crafted story and well choreographed action. Well worth the watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/23 Full Review JJJJJJ J This movie is just meh. There are some logical discontinuities in this film which is a huge problem. Then you run into characters making decisions that don't make logical sense. On top of all of this the main character in my opinion is not likable. Once you find out that her farm life was fabricated she becomes very unlikable imo. On top of that she chooses her one friend to be someone who seems completely self centered, vain, and materialistic. Yeah I don't I just couldn't find much to enjoy in this. The action is also not that good in my opinion. I'd recommend most stay away. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
