Memories of Murder


Badass movie.
We have ourselves another great Korean flick
by Joon-ho Bong (the same director as The Host and Mother).
I think this is my favorite film from him now.
It's kind of like Fincher's "Seven"
without the deadly sins.
Totally different story.
Even though the running time is little over 2 hours,
it went by quick.
It grabbed me from frame one.
Few intense scenes but nothing too brutal.
Enjoyed it.

Must have for the Asian collection.
I think I need to start a Joon-ho Bong collection.
I already own two. I've seen all his movies
and they all been good to me.
Here's my most favorite to least favorite:
1. Memories of Murder
2. The Host
3. Mother
4. Barking Dogs Never Bite
5. Tokyo (Sharing Tokyo segment)
