Featured reviews
It is comedy but also packed in action. If you're not person that so into Korean movies, you might experience effort to adapt with Korean accent and gesture. But after 15 minutes you would get there for no doubt. Thumbs up for all actors and director.
Somehow it touched me by one scene when original sound track from legendary A Better Tomorrow was in it. I laughed alone since I guess none of other spectators in theater aware of it.
Again, everyone is perfectly in the right place to produce this movie.

I watched it twice and surely would watch it again.
Characters are very Manga like and so fun to watch them do anything.
I just hope the dialogues are well translated to be able to pass the comedy to international audience. I suppose that's pretty challenging.
Good Korean movie to enjoy with all audience.
And I hope you have fried chicken on your table while watching this.

Started off very strong through a series of slapstick scenes, but quickly loses steam as the story went on. A group of very likable cops with a great concept sounds like a combination that can do no wrong, but quite quickly you realize the film lacks memorable scenes and twists in the plot. The Chinese version of the film is stronger in both its cinematography and story that you feel the Korean version exists just to be there, but doesn't offer anything substantial. The bad guys are painfully one-dimensional and lacks personality. There are no doubt comedic moments sprinkled throughout, but there is not enough meat for the film to be remembered.
This buddy cop movies is not just awesome at comedy, but best at fight scene too. Trust me, it will not disappoint you.
This movie was actually incredibly funny but the comedy heavily relies on Korean language.Just watched this movie. ONE OF THE FUNNIEST MOVIE I'VE EVER WATCHED. I found myself still giggling every time I remember this movie and worth the time to watch this movie it''s sooooooo funny

- Trivia"Extreme Job," from South Korea, and "Lobster Cop," from China, share similar stories and tones as they are based on a script written by the South Korean writer Choong-Il Moon. The script won a contest held in South Korea in 2014 by the Korea Creative Content Agency. As part of their global marketing strategy, the agency formed partnerships with other countries such as China, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, which is why there's also Vietnamese version of Extreme Job, titled "Nghe Sieu De" or "Extremely Easy Job."
