The Chaser [Chugyeogja]


Director: Na Hong-jin
Country: South Korea
Year: 2008
Length: 122 min. approx. Trailer




While The Chaser and is well known and reviewed by both the recognition and reminiscences to his predecessor Memories of bites as its remarkable impact on South Korean box office, I can not avoid dealt with in the blog (shorter and less enthusiasm to write much) to recommend. Either because they like the police thrillers, Asian cinema, or just looking for a fresh alternative.

The Chaser If we take South Korea as a part independent of other thrillers and compared with those of Western origin are going to find positive points in bulk, and is that almost wherever you look out far ahead, a strong argument and personal, logical and yet extremely evocative, intriguing, with a unhealthy atmosphere of tension and suspense which predisposes us at all times and not so we are less interesting, more touches of humor well arranged. The script is compelling on its form, showing all the cards from the beginning, characters, motivations, actions, there is nothing in itself to discover that we have but to follow, is track after track progress towards the inevitable ... a smart script yes ... because everything that gives us remains unpredictable. The character designs, attractive, and highly credible opposing antagonists honors this adjective: antagonistic, bound only by an exquisite brutality. What if we give it that little bit hopeless and heartless Korean muuuuuuuuuy surprising and rarely see in American decisions? Genius.

What is the story? The financial problems of Joong-ho do you take care of business the most, which suffers considerable losses to the disappearance of his girls, he thinks prostitutes are recruited by another. Thus begins to investigate and soon met with Young-min, a serial murderer of a dark and disturbed mind, and so it was a purely monetary becomes a race against time to save his girlfriend Mi-jin. Is the collision between two characters, a detective pimp now ceased apparently corrupt and cruel, and on the other hand, a cold, manipulative, ruthless and docile mass murderer. A tangle solve detective instincts returning to the first and second parasitic behavior in a social background of police ineptitude and protocols numbing.

highly recommended debut of this director who is already benefiting from another film, The murderer, which face each other at two murderers (the same actors that we see here.) Annotated I have to see it later.
