Gongjo 2: Inteonaesyeonal

This was the type of movie I was extremely looking forward to. I really enjoyed watching the first Confidential Assignment so I was really excited for this one as well. The entire cast did an amazing job playing their characters. The chemistry between Hyun Bin, Yoo Hae Jin, and Daniel Henney was really good with their comedic acting. I was finally happy they gave Im Yoon Ah a bigger role compared to when she was in the first one because in the first one, she wasn't in it for very long and it was one her first time acting in a movie. The villain Jin Sun Kyu played was spot on and this guy showed people that he can play any type of characters. The movie was fun to watch, the action scenes were coordinated good, but I did feel like this movie focused too much on the comedy. There were some comedies that felt a bit forced and childish. Despite the forced comedies, if you want to see some buddy cop comedy action film, this movie is one of the ones to watch.

Bomb dive into an empty pool , a pool that once where filled with good old original stuff that has become generic like the word genre. But by all means, if you like actioncomedy from the 80's youll might find the actors and stupid romance pretty suitable for you, because south corean comedy with ''a slap in the face'' commands and huge set explotions and shootouts thats out of the realms of this world can be funny and the s.k. Agent of the 3 musqito eaters is just eminent in his facts and follies, hes the kind that looks like a salt and pepper dispenser, a mouthful of corean comedy talent.

But its not more than entertainment now, 35 years too late to be called exceptional, just a 6 from the grumpy old man.

I enjoyed the pace and comic tone of this comic action movie. Hyun Bin plays it mostly serious so it's good that we have Daniel Henney with his bilingual dialogue and Yoona's sweet crushes to provide some effective comic relief. The story is quite easy to follow too not convoluted and has a little international elements with 3 countries trying to catch the bad guy. The action sequences on high rise buildings and shoot outs from NYC to Seoul are all quite well choreographed and fresh enough. You might think you have seen enough Hollywood action scenes but the ones here are high standard. Everyone looks nice and slim compared to Hollywood and it's steroid pumped up looking heroes. A refreshing change.

Highly disappointing. Each and every aspect associated with the movie feels unpolished and shallow, from acting to direction and from music to storyline. It's prequel was much much better compared to this, this movie is just unable to hold on to the legacy and charm of its predecessor. The most disappointing factor out of all was storyline. Baseless and senseless and logicless. Entire movie you struggle to understand what is happening. The director also seems confuse. Randomly placed scenes give this movie a unstructured dimension. Had High Hopes and expectations from this one considering the level of promotion and offcourse the cast, but fails to engage and satisfy audience. Could have been done in a much much better manner.

The "Confidential Assignment" series is honestly one of my favorite Korean film franchises. I really hope they continue adding more installments to it. The blend of action and comedy is spot on-it had me laughing out loud while still delivering thrilling, high-quality action scenes that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Both parts of the series had engaging, well-crafted stories. One thing I've come to appreciate deeply about Korean cinema is how strong and emotionally resonant their storytelling is. The plots aren't just entertaining-they're smart, layered, and often full of unexpected twists.

And I have to say, one of the standout elements for me is the character Jin-tae, the South Korean detective. His humor, timing, and personality brought so much life to the films. He's truly the heart and soul of the series for me. If there are future sequels, I really hope they bring him back-he adds that perfect balance of comedy and charm that makes the whole movie even more enjoyable.
