Believer 2

Holding your head to one side, swaggering and having the old man from up's glasses is not acting! Big Knife is a bit blunt tbh, I kept thinking her dreadful wig was in Ringu.

The inclusion of non verbal and non hearing characters was good.

The trope about the dad with a sick kid was a cliché like three days to retirement and the cop gets shot. I like the villains and the cops, the first film is superior and I'm going to watch it tomorrow night.

I like some of the locations and I am a fan of Korean films, food and drink.

I was very disappointed in the film big knifes fake laugh is really getting on my nerves, must do better.

If like me, you liked the first movie, then don't watch this sequel. It just deconstructs everything from the first movie, including the excellent plot twist, ruins characters, and has a TERRIBLE ending. I have no idea why this was greenlit, and who thought this was a good idea. It has some decent gunfights, but that's the only good thing about it.

Believer 2 (2023) movie is good though except the story. I am really disappointed with the story of this movie! The story was really confusing to understand for me! I do not know if anybody else feels the same as me. Action moments and scene was super and excellent! My complain is only about the story. I can not remember if i did watched "The Believer 1" or not. If not then my interest already died in this part. In a movie the story and action moments are really matters, and in this movie this thing is messed up! Hope they will make better story in future.

BELIEVER 2 is a follow-up to the 2018 original that carries straight on from the action of the first movie. It's been a fair few years since I saw that one so I was left understandably confused by the first fifteen minutes, but once things work out this becomes easy to follow, adopting a typical template of rival drugs gangs battling for supremacy while the cops try to arrest all of them. It's vividly violent and gritty throughout, with visceral action dominating in the form of mass shootings and brutal executions. The usual quality you expect from Korean cinema is present and correct here, and if it falls short of brilliance, then it's still an undeniably involving production.

This is the second film, the first puzzled me so much...But of course if the producers foresaw a sequel, that explains why I did not like the ending of the first, unlike this second part. Yes, the ending saves the movie for someone like me. For the rest, well, that's Korean, nothing to do with Western countries cinema - USA as well as Europe. It is bloody, many gratuitous violence, with although an interesting female supporting character, hardly convincing however. But I liked it. Too many characters whom I most of the time confounded. This was predictable for a movie from South Korea. And this time there won't be any more sequel.
