Alerta máxima

Suddenly, I wanted to watch a film about terrorism, and this title appeared, and I just watched it. The first time I saw the setting, to be honest, I am a typical person who is not quick enough to digest the setting of a film and cannot predict the ending of any film. For me, this decibel was less digestible at the start of the film, but when it lasted +- 50 minutes, I was able to digest it :D The film is dramatic, it tells of loyalty, revenge, anger, and honesty, and is very true. , it seems like it really happened, about a brother and boy who love each other, but are so respectful of their leader's decisions.

I like this film, and I give it a 7/10, not quite tense enough, but seeing the characters Kang Do-Young, Jeon Tae Song, and Jeon Tae Ryeong is really real!

Running against time involving bomb, which a new style bomb, the bomb uses the sound to detonate it. Innovative feature that make this movie feels thrilling and high tension. Taking member of family to be hostages

The casts are excellent, korean actors are really good to act. The main casts really doing a great job for capturing each characters

It had full and intense action and drama for 110 minutes The story build up fine, it's easy to follow. About how hard to be a leader and making decision for others. At the end we know that there's no perfect solution for every problem. This is a good movie.

I watched this South Korean movie with very bad subtitles which kinda ruined the experience a bit. The translator had problems with the genders as he constantly made the mistake between her and him or he and she. Also the names of the Koreans are just very difficult to remember for an European so that on top of the very fast dialogues just lead to confusion. I wonder if Koreans have the same difficulties to remember our names like John, Paul or Guy? That said the story was very entertaining, with constant suspense and action. I would have scored it eight if the subtitles weren't that bad. The acting was good, not overacting like it's sometimes the case with Asian actors. South Koreans just know how to act and how to make movies. Definitely the best Asian country for quality movies. I see Decibel is also categorized as a horror movie but that's absolutely not the case. It's an action thriller, a good one.

Korean's Cinema glory days belong in the past. Now it's decaying. Actors overacting, the same overdramatic context again and again. It's like we are watching the same movie, just with variations. And it's a shame, because there are many talented people involving in this area. Great action scenes, original stories etc. Please, do something, Korea is a big hope for the global film industry.

This has its moments. Action scenes are good. It's interesting and enjoyable. But it's longer than it should be. Viewer does not connect with the characters, it's too fast, chaotic and messy. At some point, i didn't care about what happened. Acting is wooden, except Rae-won Kim, he is very good. For sure, it's not a bad action movie. If you are a big a fan of this genre, maybe you will enjoy it more than me.

Decibel might ride on the damsel-in-distress cliche but scores well in the execution of action scenes. The sound-responsive bomb is an innovative feature that heightens the tension and creates a distinct brand of multisensory suspense. These unforgiving bombs increase viewers' sensitivity to sound.

The cast's excellent screen presence adds to the tension. Decibel is one of the few times fans get to see Lee JongSuk play the antagonist, and he does not disappoint. His performance of villain-grade lunacy, driven by profound pain, elicited gasps from the audience. Cha EunWoo also had his moments to shine, as he conveyed a heartfelt farewell on the submarine. Jung SangHoon balances the intense action with his humanity and some slapstick moments before things get too serious.

To be honest, it was soo heartbreaking to see the aftermath of a terrible accident in which truths were swept under the rug and accident victims were left with mental traumas. With that, I felt, the submarine problem is an important part of the film that may have been overshadowed by the bombs and action. DoYoung's dilemma immediately brings to mind the classic trolley problem experiment, and viewers are called to ponder what they would have done in that situation. However, as it demonstrates, there is no perfect solution to every problem.

In a nutshell, Decibel has a heartfelt plot. It was a film that revealed the weight of being a leader and the decisions that must be made. The decision costs lives and changes the lives of others. Perfect one for one time watch!
