Chronicles Of Evil

This is a really nice hard-boiled crime noir thriller, that we don't see much of nowadays.  I was really impressed with the Chronicles Of Evil.  Like I've said before, the South Korean movies have really been making strides. The twisted plot is just really damn clever and the lead actors  Son Hyun-joo, Ma Dong-seok, and Choi Daniel give really good performances.  It excels in exploring the notions of what it means to be good or bad or perceived as such; and how it unexpectedly manifest itself in a character's circumstances and situations.  Chronicles Of Evil is good and engaging with its twist and turns.  I suspect, maybe in dialogue too, but I'm certainly not fully qualified to judge by Korean subtitles alone.
