User Review - 10/10 by Tim MI was skeptical of the 2:40 run time, but it's totally worth it. Haven't watched such a riveting thriller in a long time, if ever. The aging for the men is done well. What a twist! Must-see for mystery fans.
User Review - 10/10 by Mri Sabsolutely outstanding murder, thriller movie after confession of murder.
User Review - 8/10 by Makiko IGreat story and excellent performance by the cast! Korean films always do a great job making dark stories entertaining like "Chaser" and "Memories of Murder."
User Review - 8/10 by Westley LJust to sum up how awesome this film was, I watched 3 other films on the same day as this one, and there were moments where I started to nod off in each of those. Not in Moss, and that was at least an hour longer than the 3 other films. It's a testament to the strong writing and complex plot, just how well I was emerged in the drama and tension. Moss takes place in a small town which has been specifically built for criminals that really want to rehabilitate. After one of the founders dies, his son comes and suspects foul play. He outstays his welcome and soon starts uncovering secrets of the town. Moss works due to its length. Where other thrillers try and condense the twists and turns and action into 2 hours, they often leave out humanity. Moss has some wonderful examples of humanity and some great characters. Corrupt detectives, suspicious townsfolk etc. All living in the name of justice, but their levels of hypocrisy are the secrets. The film holds up due to a wonderful subplot in which Ryu (the son) must team up with a prosecutor he has disgraced, in order to get to the bottom of everything. This relationship is fun to watch unravel, as they hate each other, but don't resort to annoying, childish, petty mind games. He may have been banished from the city, but the prosecutor is still interested in doing his job. Like many Korean thrillers there is a sense of humor, even at the darkest of times. It's shot beautifully, capturing the calming power of nature and the eerie reclusive feel that comes with it. The exposition scenes can be long and tiring, but they are inter-cut with flashbacks that remind us of the brilliant make-up work on show. A great, reliable, genre piece.
User Review - 8/10 by Van Wthe movie was definitely interesting, but it lacked something which i cant point out
User Review - 8/10 by Troy KI absolutely recommend this movie, but be prepared for something different besides just the culture clash of Korean society. It felt like there was something off about the movie as a whole that made it not great, but still very good.
User Review - 6/10 by Mattias EI eally wanted to like this, but it just didn't work for me. I liked the premise and felt that if the movie had been about 30 minutes shorter with a more focused plot it would have been quite good. Instead, it went on and on forever before finally reaching its destination. A shame...
User Review - 6/10 by Orlok WEngaging Korean mystery/thriller with a very good build up!!
User Review - 6/10 by Twins SAnother example of fine Korean writing. A thriller that unravels a complex story and characters subplots in a way than no many thriller genera film do. A fantastic acting and great make up effect add on to this cinematographically astonishing film. The set up is original...A small town built by criminals guided by a corrupted cop and taken care by a pricier who's task is to rehabilitate the criminal's mind. Unpredictable twists come till the very end and the 3 hours length feel very much justified. The quite charming small town and peaceful landscapes are efficiently juxtaposed with the eerie suffocating atmosphere that lurks around the village.
User Review - 6/10 by familiar sWhile the destination, as expected, wasn't satisfying enough, the journey was worthwhile. Given its runtime, I was quite hesitant to watch it, but thankfully it paid off well enough. My use of fast forward button was relatively less in this 160+ minutes flick. Not the edge-of-the-seat or 'keeps you guessing' kind of thriller, but kept me engaged more than less.
