Busload of people want to escape the world and start over in a hidden village. Intriguing premise but inconsistent tone and messy structure. If one expects a dark, gritty and trippy psychological mystery-horror, then one will be disappointed.

Twins swap places in a story about survival and finding one’s direction. Solid performances all around. Shot conventionally but nicely edited. Simple plot but the characters, relationships and themes make it more complex than it appears.

A decent follow-up to The Last Ronin. Does not have the same emotional impact but does not cheapen the work either. Nicely produced.

Despite some implausible points, it manages to captivate. Shot and edited well with solid performances.

Premise ups the threat by involving a drug cartel. Comedy tries too hard. It is as if the creators have forgotten what makes season 1 good.

Tight with good pacing, moderately dark, strong characters, decent plot and solid action. Surprisingly good.

Brave premise with a lone grieving turtle on his quest for retribution. Generally well-written. Good pacing. Dark. Captivating.

Plot-driven, focused on human and material aspects with the supernatural taking a backseat. Entertaining and, intended or not, even comical.

Moderately intriguing. Pacing can be better but no big deal. Nicely edited. Amusing score. Go Min-si is flipping nuts. But in a good way.

Opening is a bit muddled but settles into a grim slice-of-life “try to leave out our final days in peace” drama. Ending is bad and cheap.

Moderately dark and comical. Both the black comedy and action are very measured. Solid film in every respect with decent pacing.

The story of a 30-year voter-fraud investigation: computer breakdowns, unrealistic numbers, silent media, hostile justice system. Familiar.

Particular Judgement is a relatively simple teaching but it is perhaps worth a brief overview, including looking at some objections,...

Revenge drama with somewhat simple plot and characters. Nothing great but it is sufficiently captivating to keep one watching to the end.

An excellent crime comedy-action in which an intolerant priest investigates a murder and beats up criminals.

Police state. Labor camps. Fake news. Scripted reality-shows. Heavy surveillance. Brainwashed population.
