The Chase (2017)
6/10
Not the best Korean movie but not bad either.
20 December 2018
There is no doubt when it is about Asian movies that the Koreans are doing the best job. I saw plenty of Asian movies and if I had a top ten it would be filled with Korean productions. I won't go that far to pretend that Ban-Deu-Si Jab-Neun-Da (or The Chase) is the best Korean movie I've seen, far from that, but again it's well done with an entertaining story. There are enough elements to make the story mysterious but also believable. The acting is like most of the time not bad, even though the smaller parts are sometimes done by second rank actors. But the main chartacter played by Yun-shik Baek is a good actor. Overacting, or what appears as overacting in Asian movies, is what makes other Asian movies sometimes look stupid. Thats not the case with The Chase. The language is what it is, it sounds like they are always angry, but then again maybe they think that from our language as well. All in all it's a movie worth watching once.
