Hope (2026) — 6.5/10
I went into this expecting a thriller, but honestly, I found it more entertaining as a comedy. Some scenes were genuinely funny, although the pacing felt dragged out in places.
Jung Ho-yeon as Sung-ae and Hwang Jung-min as Chief Bum-seok were both good and added to the overall experience. However, the second half was where things got confusing for me. At times, I felt like I was watching without having the full context, and the lack of proper explanations made it difficult to follow everything. The CGI was also pretty rough.
Still, I think the story had potential. With better execution, stronger visuals, and a bigger production budget, this could have been much better.
Overall, it's entertaining enough if you don't take it too seriously. If you're looking for a great thriller, you might be disappointed, but if you just want something to watch for fun, it's decent.
There's also talk of a sequel, so hopefully the next one makes better use of the story's potential.
