A good thriller, but a complete mess

At first, I was really drawn into the story it started off like a typical thriller, but it still managed to feel tense and engaging. The investigation into the murders kept me watching, but the moment they started visiting Shin Hyun in prison while the killings continued outside was by far the most compelling part. That’s when the movie really built suspense and made you wonder just how much control he had, even behind bars.

After that, though, the film kind of fell apart. Scenes jumped around abruptly with no clear connection, and a lot of events happened with no explanation at all. The plot was full of holes, and it often felt like the movie was more focused on shocking visuals than actually telling a coherent story. By the time the ending arrived, the so-called big reveal didn’t land at all, partly because earlier scenes had already hinted at it, including that random bloody scene that appeared with zero context.

Despite these issues, there are still moments that work the tension during the prison visits, the psychological element of Shin Hyun’s influence, and the darker atmosphere all make parts of the movie engaging. But overall, it’s hard to shake the feeling that the film could have been much stronger if the narrative had been more cohesive. As it stands, it’s a thriller with an interesting premise that ultimately gets lost in its own messy execution*-*
