Lost (2025)

Watchable, But Barely Worth the Time

Blue is a movie about a talented shooter, Yun Tae Hwa, who is tormented by guilt after receiving a lung transplant from his father, who committed a hit-and-run accident just days before the surgery. To ensure he survived long enough for the operation, his father chose not to report the incident and secretly buried the victim. The crime was only uncovered after his father’s death during surgery, allowing him to escape conviction. As a result, Yun Tae Hwa faced harsh public criticism and was blamed by many. Seeking redemption, he sets out to find the victim’s family and offer compensation. During this journey, he finally encounters the deceased’s daughter, uncovering the darkest secret behind his father’s crime.

The story is simple and straightforward most of the time. There’s nothing particularly thrilling, exciting, or suspenseful to keep you on the edge of your seat. Even the big twist when the victim’s daughter, Kwon Mi Ji, reveals the secret behind her father’s death feels anticlimactic. Still, that moment might be the highlight of the film, because the rest often feels flat and slow.

The characters are decent, but they lack depth. None of them left a lasting impression or made me feel emotionally connected. The acting was solid across the board, but it wasn’t enough to elevate the story. The ending was fine, everything resolved as expected and life simply returned to normal.

By the time the credits rolled, I found myself thinking, “That’s it?” The movie felt long yet didn’t give much in return. Overall, it’s watchable, but not particularly enjoyable if you’re looking for something quick, engaging, and satisfying.
