Movie Reviews

Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Joseph Jon LanthierThe opaque ethics of The Chaser elide the reductive nature of binary pairs, focusing instead on the far more piquant complexity of human behavior.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe Chaser is an expert serial-killer film from South Korea and a poster child for what a well-made thriller looked like in the classic days.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael PhillipsThe film is distinguished by the grubby velocity of his foot chases, and the effectiveness of its craft.
Time Out - 8/10 by Aaron HillisNa keeps pulling the rug out from under us, and his brawny genre exercise doubles nicely as a scream of social anguish, since most of the twisted screwups occur at the hands of bumbling or corrupt cops.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Mike HaleWhile it could stand to lose 20 minutes and several plot twists, Mr. Na’s debut manages to be thought-provoking and adventurous while providing solid thrills.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Maggie LeeThe tight time-frame gives the excellent cast a chance to play with intensity, making even old genre hands hold their breath and feel their minds sufficiently shaken up.
Variety - 7/10 by Justin ChangPulse-pounding third act expertly pushes the audience’s buttons, to excruciatingly ironic and ultimately devastating effect. Pic does turn overwrought in the final stretch and would have been wise to end on an earlier note, though action fans won’t mind.
Empire - 6/10 by Nick de SemlyenSome of the tension drains from a slow middle act, but it remains a gripping tale of sleuth-work and moral awakening.
Time Out London - 4/10 by David JenkinsThe best moments come with two bravura and ultra-realistic chase sequences through grotty, dimly lit back allies, and director Na Hong-Jin also does his best to toy with expectations whenever possible. This playfulness, however, backfires massively in the second half when coincidence and unforeseen consequence conspire uneasily with bloody, messy results.
The Guardian - 4/10 by Peter BradshawIt's atmospheric but derivative, and I didn't find the denouement's Christian imagery convincing.
