Otkon After about twenty minutes, we get the idea that the cops are corrupt, violent and stupid. But this movie belabors the point well beyond need be. I don't even care they never solved the case; from their ineptitude, that was a foregone conclusion from the start. I find it had to believe that there wasn't a single DNA lab in the Far East in 1986. Plus DNA results even today don't come back in a matter of hours like on CSI, or in days from overseas like in this movies. So 30 years ago, it would have taken considerably longer to get those comparisons from Korea to the US and back. I did like the lady cop. She had her stuff together.
adonis98-743-186503 In a small Korean province in 1986, three detectives struggle with the case of multiple young women being found raped and murdered by an unknown culprit. The most haunting scene from this movie was definitely seeing a dude peeing on a bra and underwear i mean it will haunt me for life. Seriously this movie was just stupid and way too long as most of the films from the Top 250 are. The acting was really bad and the script even worse and the only reedeming quality was once it finally ended and the nightmare stopped cause it was terrible and meh. (0/10)
paulclaassen I must be honest, some of the things the police did made me raise an eyebrow, wondering if this is indeed the way the Korean police conduct their investigations. The police are (once again) depicted as idiots more often than not. Interesting to see in how many Korean movies this is the case.The film starts off as a great mystery, then plummets to the eyebrow-scenes I mentioned above, and after the halfway mark it gets really interesting and suspenseful. I didn't find any actors incredibly good, but not entirely bad either - they just didn't seem all that serious considering the film's plot, and considering this was based on a true story. I thought the film had a lot of trivial scenes that could have been omitted, thereby cutting the lengthy running time. Based on the real-life unsolved murders, the film's ending does not provide any closure.It is nevertheless a good film, though, and if you're into Korean movies, I do recommend you see this.
CousinBagunca Memories of Murder is not for everyone. It has that distinct South Korean style that might not be delightful to all audiences.At first, it might seem some sort of police comedy, but don't get that wrong, this movie is a crime drama and I'd tip my hat for it.It has a slow pace that might be kinda overwhelming, but it holds your attention enough that you wanna keep watching. The personal struggles with each main character are done well so that you can understand their feelings and, towards the end, you're pretty much accepting all their choices.The finalé had such a peculiar feeling that I thought it was awesome! Overall, great experience! Of course the movie might look kinda weird if your not into some low budget crude weird B-flick, but don't overlook it, Memories of Murder is a nice crime drama with a solid storyline.
