Featured reviews
The film started fast, but as long as you catch up with the pace, it's very understandable. I would say the title need a bit more in order to compatible to the film, which I would expect completely different story line when I read the title.
Overall, great film
Excellent crime thriller about a detective seeking further punishment of a convicted murderer who despite confessing to further crimes, uses legal loopholes and the statute of limitations, coupled with half truths and misinformation to evade justice.
Kim Yoon-seok's performance was outstanding as usual and rising star Ju Ji-hoon was also very impressive, balancing his performance well. Based on a true story, strongly recommend.
Great detective movie, it won't disappoints you the acting of Yoon-Seok Kim was great
DARK FIGURE OF CRIME is a somewhat unremarkable true crime tale from South Korea, similar to MEMORIES OF MURDER but not on the same level. It involves Kim Yoon-seok (of stone-cold classics like THE CHASER and THE YELLOW SEA) as a detective reopening a cold case about a serial killer who claims to have murdered multiple other victims whose bodies have never been found. There are some flashbacks here but the majority is a cat-and-mouse psychological game between detective and killer, the latter played by the guy who was the crown prince in KINGDOM. Sedately paced but involving with it, this is a good watch for fans of the genre.
The plot of this revolve around a psycho who murdered women and burry them at different places and challenge detective to find those missing bodies. This is a masterpiece movie with excellent acting ju hi joon and detective kim yoon also.
