Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
KIM Suk-hyun is Korea's youngest appointed criminal court head judge, very famous for his rational rulings. It is before his court that the case of distinguished mathematics professor SOHN Ki-chul's murder of his wife is presented. While examining SOHN's file, Suk-hyun finds SOHN's life unbelievably parallels Kurt Gödel's. But KIM believes fate is what one makes of it, and just regards SOHN as a crazy old professor who killed his wife. One day, Suk-hyun gets a strange phone call threatening the lives of his wife, Yoon-kyung, and his young daughter. Before long, Yoon-kyung turns up dead, and SOHN dies of starvation-just like Gödel.

| User ReviewSteve WThe movie has an intriguing enough concept to where you actually want to watch through to at least find out what's happening. That's really about all it is though, just a concept. If you're looking for good storytelling here, well then fuck you. The story is, quite frankly, an absolute goddamn mess with a lot of dumb and senseless twists. Intriguing concept aside, I don't get why the reason was to have the main character's life be exactly like that of a judge 30 year prior. Why would this be done? It doesn't really serve any purpose other than to try and have a unique concept to what is on its own a generic thriller. Given how it plays out I'd still consider it pretty generic. Of course you still have your melodramatic scene, but it's relatively short compared to other Korean movies. So really, outside of an intriguing concept that simply doesn't pay out in the end, and some decent acting, there's really not much to this movie. The story doesn't make sense, the end is flat, and the concept doesn't make up for the fact that this is just like every other generic thriller out there with nothing to distinguish itself from the pack. |
