Madness that does magic
This is that kind of movie where the characters make all the dumb decisions and started the worst situation you could ever imagine, ironically it is exactly the madness that does magic in a sense of who can be the smartest out of all in this mind bending strategy war. What happens afterwards in the movie is pure magnificence, the legal indictment of its murder investigation is extremely detailed and the plot twist within it will ultimately blow your mind away not only once but multiple times. The acting performance is so intense it will pull you into a great deal of attention to determine the truth behind it, the amount of emotion and thrill it carries is unprecedented.Was this review helpful to you?
"Salvation is never painless"
I had great hopes for Confession as it starred So Ji Sub and Kim Yoon Jin (Lost’s Sun!). Instead of a sexy or cerebral thriller, I was treated to one of villainy’s lower wattage killers. While it had a nice little twist, it came so late in the film that I’d already emotionally checked out.Yoo Min Ho is under investigation for the murder of his mistress, Kim Se Hui. It was a locked room killing, with only Yoo and the deceased Kim in the room. When Yoo meets with his new lawyer, Yang Sin Ae, at his remote cabin near a lake in the snowy woods, the stories of what really happened are slowly revealed.
Very slowly revealed. The story had potential, but the unraveling of the lies and the truth came across too clinically and illogically. By the time the denouement arrived, it was too little too late for me. I don’t want to spoil anything for potential viewers who have never watched a suspense drama like this and will quite probably have a better experience. In the end, for me, Confession ticked off all the requisite suspense boxes while stretching logic and police procedures to the breaking point.

This is an extremely well done movie.
The storyline is interesting.
I found this movie so interesting that I searched for the movie Contratiempo 2016 or The Invisible Guest a WB production from Spain, since Confession is a remake of this film, I heard it in the comments section. I also viewed it and it's also an amazing production. Now I have two interesting films which I plan to re-watch. Let me tell you Confession 2022 is Not an exact copy of The Invisible Guest 2016. I really enjoyed these movies.

A small pebble that turned into a massive avalanche.The story was predictable and took way too long to start the revelation. I actually hate stories that could've been solved/stopped but maybe that person wanted the avalanche to happen
The ml was stupid tho, I mean they all were
His pov never made sense cuz, he's the guy🤣 making his mistress drive, telling her he wants to quit, and she says lets cover it up?
And lawyer saying she met the dad, but he never sused there's more to it? Especially after the guy said she's a reporter not a hotel reception 🤣
I also hate the "turns out to not be dead but couldn't go back"🤡
The mood got me, 5, 4, 6, 9, 3, and a 9ish🤣 atleast I'm glad it didn't turn ugly with mass murders at the end, I actually think the villains worse punishment is getting caught

«Confession» n’est pas un film d’action, comme c’est souvent le cas avec les thrillers. Comme il est dit sur le poster, « toute histoire a deux côtés. La vérité, seulement un. » Et ce film se porte sur essayer de découvrir ce qui est vrai et ce qui ne l’est pas. Qui est coupable, de quoi, etc. Mais attention, l’histoire réserve son lot de retournements aussi ! Certains étaient faciles à voir, d’autres, plus surprenants. Mais je peux dire que j’ai passé un bon moment avec ce film !
