Korean cinema has its John wick its a slick no nonsense action tour de force, we don't give out 5 stars very often but this film deserves its plaudits. Its like a John Woo movie with less Doves and more Bullets, a killer film that delivers on its promise, and Jang Hyuk does a great job of walking that fine line of killer with a heart that you root for and believe in from the very start.

I could go on about how this being The killer movie of 2023 or Korean cinema at its best, but you should grab a slice of this action, its one not to be missed and as you can tell we really did rather enjoy it.
