This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Hit men, an ex-special forces operative, tough cops, a mentally-challenged kidnapper, a doctor and his pregnant wife...Well, it certainly sounds frenetic, and in a whirlwind of violence, that's exactly what was intended in this action-thriller, but in order for it all to work, we have to care a little about the characters and that, unfortunately, is where the film started to fall flat. Throw in a few dumb moments to spoil the intensity that's built up and The Target really misses its mark.A remake of a French film I've not seen, I can't compare the two to say which is better, nor could I genuinely recommend this to fans of Korean cinema or action, because there are so many better titles out there more worthy of your time... though, that doesn't mean that you need to change the channel should it ever be on TV.

Compare with another Korean action film, I think this film is better than older. The thing give me the most attention is the main actor emotion and his acting. But I think, the director did not want to put all their attention on the main character but rather focus to doctor. So the main actor doesn't have many scenes. The best scene of main actor as I remember is when he take infor from gang and when he came from outside police station (Really I've looking for more action scene this time, but it was not.Any way I'm looking for more and more tried from Korean action movie like this or better.

If you are a fan of action thriller movies , then you will most likely enjoy this one.The film benefits from a hard, gritty edge, with lots of brutal violence, fist fights, shoot outs, stabbings all of which pack a considerable punch thanks to some excellent choreography and stunts.Due to the action overload, there's sadly not room for much else, and the film doesn't do quite so well in other areas.The plotting might be somewhat silly, and pretty much falls apart as soon as you think about it, but it knows how to keep you involved. Despite its flaws,"the target" is still sufficiently engaging to entertain- especially since its pace is brisk and its actors easy on the eye.Its a solid and frequently thrilling cinema which should provide genre fans with sufficient entertainment and excitement..
