A very good South Korean thriller which makes us follow an investigation around mysterious suicides and a serial killer. Beautiful photography and good staging and actors in the hair, no complaints. if you like the genre go for it.

The Chase isn't the greatest entry in South Korean cinema's serial-killer genre but it offers sufficient thrills, suspense, and dark humor to keep it an engaging affair. The first half towers over the second owing to its smooth transition between grisly murders and offhand comedy. The chemistry between the grumpy landlord and the ex-detective with memory issues was fantastic. The supporting cast, including the killer, also does well. Director Hong-seon Kim tries to add one too many layers to the connected backstory of the detective and the killer but they don't add up to much, other than being well-shot. The end twist also doesn't blow your mind. I believe the director wanted to maintain a lighter tone even when the film dealt with a serious subject. It's safe to say that the efforts have paid off to an extent, if not fully.

This movie is just another Insane thriller in Korean movies.I have seen a lot of korean thriller movies and not even a single one have disappointed me till this time.This Movies is about a murder who reminance himself like the killer in the past 30years.Never thought an old character would be such a huge lead.Overall The movies is a must watch with humor here and there the movies is Perfect for crime Thriller.

Korean films are renowned for introducing their characters comedy style, regardless of the genre. 'The Chase' is no different. It starts off like a comedy, and quite funny, too. I really got to like the characters this way. The film very soon turns grim and suspenseful, though, as a serial killer starts preying on innocent victims in a block of flats. Yun-shik Baek is excellent as grumpy landlord Sim Deok-soo, who starts doing his own investigation regardless of the dangers involved. The film sucks you in like a magnet and it kept me glued to the screen. There's a few interesting twists and a very good finale. Although I enjoyed the film, films like 'The Chaser' and 'I saw the Devil' are much better, so be sure to check them out.

There is no doubt when it is about Asian movies that the Koreans are doing the best job. I saw plenty of Asian movies and if I had a top ten it would be filled with Korean productions. I won't go that far to pretend that Ban-Deu-Si Jab-Neun-Da (or The Chase) is the best Korean movie I've seen, far from that, but again it's well done with an entertaining story. There are enough elements to make the story mysterious but also believable. The acting is like most of the time not bad, even though the smaller parts are sometimes done by second rank actors. But the main chartacter played by Yun-shik Baek is a good actor. Overacting, or what appears as overacting in Asian movies, is what makes other Asian movies sometimes look stupid. Thats not the case with The Chase. The language is what it is, it sounds like they are always angry, but then again maybe they think that from our language as well. All in all it's a movie worth watching once.

Typically Korean, which is why I loved it. Abstract humour in moments of horror. Good story and fun to watch.

The Chase is a crime-thriller film directed by Kim Heong-Seon. The movie is about a landowner who helped an ex-detective to chase after the suspect of the 30-year old unsolved murder. I am a big fan of crime movies. I love how this genre makes me think like I am a detective and joins the protagonist in solving a crime. This film left a strong impression to me and it is definitely worth watching. I like how each actor portrayed their characters. Sung Dong-Il, of whom I am a big fan of, definitely aced his role. The supporting actors also helped in bringing the story to life. I personally liked how the film is directed. The twistsand turns of the scenes are not confusing. It contributed to my constant thinking of finding who the suspect is. The cinematography is not exaggerated. The set felt lived-in and believable. Although there are some gross scenes of dead people, it played a big role in making each murder scene realistic. I loved Sung Dong-Il's character because I never really expected his character in the story. It absolutely surprised me and that really caught my attention to watch the movie until the end. As a big fan of crime-thriller movies, this film is definitely recommended to those people who love critical thinking when watching movies. Each scene will take you by surprise and would never disappoint you in the end.

A decent, entertaining thriller. Scenario could be simplified and overall it could be scarier. Movie tried to be smarter than it is.
