Quick

This is a fast paced and action packed movie from start to finish and is also engaging from start to finish. Judging by the trailer I was expecting a movie that is lazy and didn't have as much action and explosions as the trailer made it seem. But this is one of those movies where it surpasses the trailer and goes beyond. The comedic elements are done right and the right moments to the point I couldn't help but have a grin on my face while watching and some parts got me laughing. Sure this movie is absurd and over the top but that is the direction it's trying to go and it knows which direction it wants to head and it works. The actress Kang Hye-Won is not just a pretty face but she is a good actress that can pull off comedic roles such as the one in this. Even the action sequences are done very well for a movie that is made outside of Hollywood and I was impressed, especially with the CGI scenes. This movie reminded me of a comedic and over the top version of the movies "Speed" and "Transporter 3". So this movie is almost a perfect blend of action and slapstick comedy that is so very entertaining from start to finish.

8.2/10

When I purchased this movie from Amazon, I hadn't expected to be in for such a great treat. This movie was simply amazing, it had comedy, it had action, it had fast pace and wits, and also a good storyline.

"Adrenaline Rush" as it is amply titled on the English cover is a great action comedy about a bike-delivery guy getting trapped on his motorbike with his ex-girlfriend, as a bomb is threatening to kill them bomb. In order to stay alive, they have to make explosive deliveries in a certain amount of time. But as if the bomb wasn't enough to threaten their lives, their turbulent past and personalities also threaten to have them at each others throats.

This movie is fast paced and has just the right amount of comedy in it without making it become strained and too much to bear witness to. The action and driving sequences in the movie were nicely shot and well executed. And the chemistry between Min-ki Lee (playing Han Gi-soo) and Ye-won Kang (playing Ah-rom) was just off the charts. These two really carried the movie such a long way.

If you enjoy Korean movies, then "Kwik" (aka "Adrenaline Rush") is one not to be missed. For fans of "Speed" and "The Transporter".

The version I watched while in the original Korean language has been cut down to 80m and it shows.

OK, so it's not the most densely plotted film but the edits take a lot of the exposition away, characters suddenly join the chase scenes with no clue as to how.

It's still a fun film but I'd much rather it made sense!.

I didn't expect much due to the low average rating, but I ended up very pleasantly surprised. This movie is absolutely hilarious. Lots of hysterical characters and suprisingly good, totally over the top action scenes and stunts. I definitely recommend you watch it, preferably with a friend.

If you like bikes, you're sure to enjoy this action comedy just for the thrill of it. The story is not very believable and it gets a bit slapstick at times, but the fast-paced action more than compensates for that. The stunts were just as incredible as the action sequences. The stunning photography and superb editing enhances the viewing pleasure.

It might not be the best story out there, but it certainly was a hell of a lot of fun!! Don't take it too seriously; you will enjoy it!
