RV: Resurrected Victims

Wow, a fantastic premise excellently executed. This was interesting from the word GO and the mystery and excitement never ceased until the thrilling climax. With so many secrets and reveals, the film deserves more than just one viewing. The cast was excellent. One can't help but wish for RV to become a reality.

...where you get smothered, choked to death, with the twin scourges of Korean cinema - overacting and sappy music. In this case, it was delivered in spades to wrench as much sympathy from the audience as possible. Maybe that trope works well in Seoul, but for the rest of the world, not so much. The story itself isn't that bad; it it nice to see how gritty Koreans live outside of the slick travelogues one gets from time to time with shows related to Rick Steves' Europe. Not really recommended unless you have no other way to pass the time.

"RV: Resurrected Victims" was pretty good although not as good as actor Kim Rae-won's portrayal of a genetically engineered "super human" with glowing blue eyes (Zi O) in the sci-fi mystery "L. U. C. A.: The Beginning (2021)." In comparison, the plot of this movie felt more difficult to follow and the run time seemed longer than an hour and a half. Not a terrible film, but not my first choice in mystery thrillers.

RV: Resurrected Victims is a muddled, confused and unnecessarily odd film that picks up and drops plot points quicker than you can keep track off giving it the feel of a much longer film or series edited down into a brisk 90 something minutes.

It's in many ways a bad film while at the same time being in no way a bad film given how fully it embraces the ridiculous set up and convoluted story which feels like an afterthought once the big reveal has been showcased. As it races toward the finish line various elements are brought together but rarely gel in a way that you hope they will. Still, it's inventive and odd enough that you can overlook the issues and just embrace the absurdity of what is clearly intended as a franchise starter.

The movie shows how much parent(s) can do for their children. Although we don't know resurrected victims are real or not, the movie is highly enjoyable. It's based on the murder of a prosecutor's mother. As the film goes, they show how the murder happened. So, it gets interesting more and more.

The plot is like wrapped in a mystery. It's a simple murder case, but it's kind of complex inside which gives you some excitements. It's one of those movies of simple-plot-but-a-great-one.

Everything is good, including the performances of actors and actresses, except that actress who played as prosecutor's sister. Her acting was like she was a crazy girl. In a scene where she was afraid, her acting didn't seem that she was afraid. More like she was crazed. So, her acting was very bad.

All in all, it shows a mother's love, even the children don't care that much about their mother. Regardless of it's fiction or not, the movie is great and enjoyable.
