Murderer

I was pleasantly surprised by this film that is extremely dark and disturbing from beginning to end. Don Lee is just an untapped talent for American films as he has such range as in this film he plays a killer living with his son in the sticks when his son befriends a classmate who knows his father is a killer. This is dark material about two kids coming of age within an even darker family life. This might not be for everyone, but it is an amazing piece of psychological drama.

A serial killer....and a good son...A big dilemma and anguish faced by the son when he realises his father is a serial killer who killed his mother. A girl who made friends with the boy eventually realises his father was the killer whom she witness in the middle of a killing act previously. In the end, the boy stabbed his father to death when his father caught up with both children and tried to strangle the girl.

Storyline and pace of the story started off well. Audience have great empathy for the boy who is confused and sad that his father was a serial killer. What became illogical was how the boy decided to stab his teacher. He was of a good character and couldn't have possibly done that. And how would the boy for his tender years be able to inflict stabs strong enough to kill his father? Show was quite a let down towards the end. Although it was overall good enough to get a passable rating from myself.

I watched this movie expecting some good,gripping story since the genre and title itself says the same and also being one of my favorite artist in movie Dong-seok Ma.Though the story was good but there are many plot holes in movie which made me feel that may be the screenplay director didn't do his job nicely or the director was in hurry to pack-up this movie . the movie is about a husband who becomes serial killer after he kills his cheating wife and her lovers.though it is not properly shown in the movie as to why she was cheating on him,but there is lack of flow in story itself.the film tried to shows the effect it had in his life and in his son's after the husband killed his wife.the film couldn't give proper justice to this good story.like i said earlier the screenplay director or director was in hurry to wrap the movie. so for me this movie is OK only.I won't recommend this movie to anyone but if anyone interested they can watch it but i know that they won't be satisfied when they watch this movie completely.
