*The Childe* is an intense, action-packed film that keeps you on the edge of your seat. It combines gripping narrative with compelling performances. In addition to Kim Seon Ho's standout role as a professional killer, the film features a well-rounded cast that adds depth to the story. The direction and choreography of the action sequences are stellar, making each scene both thrilling and impactful. The plot twists and turns leave plenty of room for potential sequels, keeping audiences guessing until the very end. Hope it is the first of a long series of movie just like Ma Dong-Seok's "Roundup".

City Hunter is almost 30 years old. For a new audience, the production could have made a one on one adaptation of the manga and/or anime to get new fans. It wouldn't have hurt and the 90s kids (or earlier) would love it. City Hunter is not that hard to adapt IMO. This movie just becomes another action movie.

Besides Kaori, which they changed a little the background, the main characters are from the source. The story is from the principal arc which is good but the introduction is too long to narrate. For a movie of 1h40 minutes, it should have focused on the characters with some small side missions for the 30 first minutes to know them better. It's a miss from the prod. In the end, we don't know what's xyz and don't even know what is City Hunter which is sad truly. City Hunter should be the light for the city of Tokyo. It should brings hope to the needy. But besides that we just get another action movie which is confusing and boring at time.

City Hunter (2024) has missed the mark to get introduced to new fans. It looks just like a fan service of something that is adaptable to a broader audience, but that tells nothing.

The ending sounds like it's open for new parts. If there are not other parts, then this movie is just a pass. It sometimes is too confusing unless the viewers know already the series.

Show is fun to watch. Battle royal of kinda police and robbers or wolf and sheep that kids play (or used to). The contestants are all famous or celebrities from Youtube to tv show, or music and sport. The participants are competing or rather running from "Hunters" to win a prize money. Weird to find that the prize money is a little $8-35k for famous people (I guess in Japan, celebrities aren't paid that much for their appearances or performances). Anyway, you'll find rooting for courageous candidates and wish other annoying candidates to get caught. The show is also full of suspenses. 4 episodes are easy to watch. However, I wished they didn't cut off all the funny interactions. Hope to see another season. Promising show from Netflix.
