Plot

A cop with legal issues that are never mentioned after the first ten minutes is put in charge of a task force to solve a series of bizarre murders. Victims are being dumped with body parts from other victims. The center of the murders revolve around the lovely daughter of a famous artist.

Pros

This is a fun little movie that once you think you have it figured out it takes a turn in a completely different direction. For a murder movie there isn't a lot of gore but what they do have is quite effective (I loved the scene in the elevator).

Cons

If you're not paying attention to the entire movie the ending will leave you lost. I thought the movie was ending and was waiting for the credits when I looked at the counter on my player and noticed there were still over 20 minutes left; and what an interesting 20 minutes that turned out to be. And what's with the police in S. Korea? Are they all too macho to call for backup before they walk into obviously very dangerous situations or are they just that careless/untrained?

Recommendation

This is a fun crime movie with a very entertaining ending that will confuse the hell out of you if you do not pay close attention to the first 90 minutes.
