SO WHO IS MORE CRAZY, MORE DISTURBED, OUT OF THE THREE? haha
Good Psychological Crime Thriller👌🏻
Not bad n yet not so gripping too 🤷🏻♀️
Just mediocre.
When Netflix listed this in "coming soon", I waited to watch this.
Expected a very Gripping Mystery thriller, seeing the MYSTERIOUS VIBE of "COVER PHOTO" 😂
IT DECEIVED ME !! 😔🤭
****
Direction, Pacing n Cinematography are GOOD.
I accept every tradition n can tolerate religious rituals etc, shown in movies, especially in horror thrillers.
But One Minor Complaint here, in direction is, too much of in depth religious prayers are shown.
Maybe those are necessary for the scene or the story demanded but I personally lose interest when rituals or prayers are shown in excess tones.
****
Acting is OK, not so impressive👍🏻
In few scenes, Jun Yeol's (pastor Min Chan) expressions are more crazy n scarier than those of the killer 😂
Liked those scenes 😂👍🏻
**** STORY:
The Story is Good.
A very simple one - a killer, a kidnapped gal, a pastor trying to punish the killer n a police detective trying to save the gal.
Narrated in a very straight forward manner without much suspense 🤷🏻♀️
It is known who the killer is, from the beginning.
So cannot expect any suspense or mystery about the killer's identity, like in usual crime thrillers.
And so, Crime Thriller Lovers might find this as a not so gripping mystery but just a plain n mediocre thriller without much mystery n suspense😐
The only suspense here is, whether the kidnapped girl is alive or no n that is maintained till the end.
This could be made into an even more interesting thriller with more gripping mystery n suspense elements 🤷🏻♀️
(Or maybe, for this plain story, shouldn't we expect much !? 🤔😯)
**** CHARACTERS:
SO WHO IS MORE CRAZY, MORE DISTURBED, OUT OF THE THREE? 😂🤦🏻♀️
The Psychopathic Serial Killer with childhood trauma, triggered n created deadly events
or
(Pastor) Religious Faith turned into Obsession that blinded the logics of reality n blurred the truth (he assumed the gal is not alive, without confirming 😐)
or
The Person working for law (lady police detective) seeing illusions of dead sister out of guilt, tempted to take the law into her hands, suppressing that urge to avenge her loved one's death n yet struggling to do the right thing!
This mix of three characters each with some psychological issues, the intertwining of their stories, is WELL WRITTEN 👌🏻
But could be better, if more suspense or mystery elements are added.
****
Overall, GOOD One Time Watch.
My Rating is 8 / 10
**** Fun Fact:
Like Min Chan, I can see a "FACE" in the COVER PHOTO, between the trees ! 😯
Optical illusion!? 🤔😯
Before watching the Movie:
I just saw "a way" between the trees.
But after watching the movie:
I see a face! 😲
Am I dreaming 🤭
