Review of Fabricated City (2017) by Etienne P — 26 Aug 2017
Once again Korean Cinema offers you ( at least ) three film genres in one film. Lets see - Cyber Thriller, Tough Prison, Buddy Movie, Action-Comedy ..make it four! The tone of the movie is consequently uneven as it goes for laughs in places then pours on some brutal scenes.
It could have used a bit of a trim in the edit suite as two hours is just too long to maintain tension.
On the plus side there are some nice cyber visuals and a very pantomime villain.
If you want to stick the noodle in neutral it wont make any difference as the plot is just a thin excuse for the action sequences.
Oh and theres some McGyver type scenes too - there's another Genre!
