Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

mukhdarab This movie was very tense and sary. The mystery throughout it all kept me hooked. It got me into Korean movies.

bendres-04329 In Memories of Murder, Bong Joon Ho makes the audience feel the uncertainty and frightfullness the characters feel. This film has everything, with commentary on human nature to Korean politics. The directing and cinematography is absolutely beautiful, giving many shots of our main characters together in frame to show both their differences and similarities. The story is gripping all throughout, giving every character an arc, and the ending is absolutely astounding, if not all that satisfying. Bong Joon Ho put in years of work and it completely shows in this film.

classicsoncall Starting out I didn't know how to take this movie. The senior police detective is out planting evidence, his belligerent sidekick routinely beats and tortures suspects, and people brought in for questioning admit to crimes they're completely innocent of. It's all very disorienting and doesn't make a lot of sense until about the second half of the movie when the detectives hunker down and involve themselves in routine but exhausting police work.Regarding planted evidence, feeble minded suspect Kwang-ho (No-shik Park) might have been able to out Detective Park (Kang-ho Song) for his dishonest methods if he'd been able to differentiate the underside of his left foot sneaker with the picture the detective showed him of a right shoe footprint. If you go back and check that scene, you'll see that the physical shoe couldn't have made the print in the 'evidence'. The correct sneaker would have made a reverse image print in the dirt.It's kind of ironic actually that the big break in the case occurs because a lowly female desk officer makes a connection between a sad song played on a radio station and rainy nights when a serial killer's murders occur. This while Detective Park is crystallizing his theory about crazy hairless men (trust me, you have to catch that!).When everything finally comes together and the detective on loan Seo Tae-yoon (Sang-kyung Kim) closes in on the suspected serial killer, the rug is pulled out from under him and the viewer with the information from America that the DNA sample sent in is not conclusive. It points to another irony in as much as Seo's insistence on the infallibility of 'written documents' is torn to shreds. At that point, one feels helpless over Park Hyeon-gyu's (Hae-il Park) get away, since most of the circumstantial evidence pointed to him as the killer.I didn't know this film was about a real life serial killer case that went unsolved in South Korea in the Nineties. In fact, I didn't even know about the picture until I ran across it on one of the IMDb top film lists. Fortunately, I'm glad I kept an open mind enough despite the dubious outset, because the story turned out to be a provocatively intriguing one, even if no resolution occurred as a result. The closing scene inspires closure and doubt at the same time, a unique conclusion to a murder mystery that remains unsolved in real life.

Sohan_Composer A serial killing movie where the detectives try to catch the killer but every time they failed & get confused about the murderer. they catch some suspect & start questioning. when you'll watch this movie you probably think that every suspect can be the killer according to their behavior & answers. the main two lead roles acted amazingly. their natural acting will touch your heart & the cinematography will make you think about re-watching this masterpiece. this is a slow paced movie where the story slowly get paced & you'll see the characters will blossom & disappear like flowers, that's what made this movie a masterpiece. at the end of the show you'll question yourself & think about this movie whole day. this is just brilliant ! i give it 10/10.
