A Suspenseful Thriller with Strong Moments but Not Without Flaws
I aim to keep my reviews short, spoiler-free, and focused on the key points to help you decide if a drama is worth your time. I never fast-forward and always strive to watch the entire movie to give a fair and thorough perspective.
The movie delivers a gripping premise but has some noticeable shortcomings. The movie deliberately maintains an air of ambiguity, keeping you guessing and heightening the suspense until the very end. This transformation is one of the film’s stronger aspects, though not all elements are as well executed.
The balance between suspense and humor is enjoyable, with quirky moments adding levity to the tension. However, certain plot points feel questionable or underdeveloped, and the idea that they couldn’t simply make different choices to prevent the events strains logic.
The film is clearly rooted in Korean cultural beliefs, particularly shamanism, which may leave some viewers feeling lost due to the lack of explanation. Still, the mystery surrounding these beliefs keeps you engaged until the end. The final act, however, overdoes the set design and neglects key details, making it feel slightly rushed.
Despite its flaws, the movie is well-acted and maintains suspense throughout, making it an engaging but imperfect psychological thriller.
