Review of The Chaser

The Chaser (2008)
Excellence in Film making
2 July 2008
Before watching this film, I had doubts in my mind whether to watch it or not.. the reason being, it's not in English. I thought why take trouble in watching a Korean film. I've checked IMDb and was stunned to see a 8.1 rating. Then I thought again.. this film must have been really good. I highly doubted that most of the films that are rated high didn't rhyme with my taste.

Anyway.. I started watching this film. It started off slowly and as it progressed, I was amazed by the way the story unfolded, the way the director portrayed the characters. Everything was amazing. Acting was excellent and I just can't seem to find any shortcomings in the film.

The climax was superb and I must say that Yeong-hie Seo, Jung-woo Ha & Yun-seok Kim deserve much of the praise for excellent acting.

I'm sure that this film will be a good contender for the next Oscars. I highly recommend this film to everyone (above 15).
