Hitman: Agent Jun

Not often you get a mix of manwha and live action from South Korea, its either, or. So its fun to see a Who killed Roger Rabbit or Toon World mix in one of their films. Mawha isn't often seen highlighted this way especially in the very popular Webtoon style which is read by the world all over. Which us fans of the Korean artstyle are grateful for, to give us something a bit more different from the western of comics. I for one, would like more of all the styles from all over the world become evermore popular as a comic book creator myself.

It's not really a bad movie, but unfortunately it's too drawn out and too long so I started losing interest a bit about halfway through. There are quite a few scenes that could have been left out or shortened and the story and characters aren't really that complex, original or creative either. You've pretty much seen it all before. It does have its funny moments so if you have some time to waste, I guess you can give it a watch.

Just watched this title. Though it has ' Hitman' title the hitting scenes are barely two or three in whole movie. Hitman hero looks dumb ass most of times. Villains look comedy star rather than dangerous villain. Also movie is lengthy that it take you 2 hours to reach its end and climax is nothing new. It was as expected except only a little bit twist. Overall movie is average and lengthy and you can only watch if you have extra spare time. Do not see this movie with your precise time otherwise you will feel cheating.

I hadn't heard about "Hiteumaen" (aka "Hitman: Agent Jun") before now in 2021, when I was presented with the opportunity to sit down and watch it. Needless to say that with my fascination and love for the Asian cinema, then of course I took the time to watch "Hitman: Agent Jun".

And I must say that "Hitman: Agent Jun" is definitely well worth a watch. I turned out to be a rather enjoyable movie, so writers Won-sub Choi and Jung-Ryeol Sin definitely managed to come up with an entertaining concept idea for a movie.

"Hitman: Agent Jun" is a movie that has elements of action, espionage, drama and comedy in it, and it is a mixture that most certainly worked out well enough with director Won-sub Choi in charge.

The storyline was as entertaining as it was enjoyable, and it was a great mixture of different genres blended into one movie. I must admit that I was more than genuinely entertained by this movie and it was a rather nice surprise of a movie.

They had managed to get together a great ensemble of actors and actresses to portray the various roles in the movie, so that was definitely something that panned out well in favor of "Hitman: Agent Jun".

My rating of this 2020 movie lands on a seven out of ten stars.

"Hitman: Agent Jun" is a clever mix of action, drama and comedy, that hits the mark.

This film balances action and stylised villains, with a genuinely funny, heartfelt and down to earth, back story. Its a winning combination that softens the main character, making him and those around him more rounded and human.

Decent pacing, great choreography and acting round this one out.

Definitely worth a look.

8/10.
