Park Chan-wook is a master of his craft, and it shows even in this, but I couldn't help but roll my eyes as yet another acclaimed Korean film feels the need to go over itself numerous times, shoving every detail down your throat, as if each one is a grand revelation you never saw coming, as if each beat is more cunning than the next. It's undermining, patronising and it comes from an exhausted, and what feels like at this point, an artificial formula.
Note: All I could think of during the scissoring scene, when they clasped hands, was the scene in Predator "You son of a b*tch".

It's like Godfather but with trucks instead of anything of interest.
It's like a slightly better version of The Nice Guys.
