Review of Assassination (2015) by David S — 06 Aug 2015
Choi-Dong-hun (The Thieves) brins back his regulars for a spectacular, violent, and thrilling period piece war action thriller. Its Resistance fighters trying to kill Japanese find themselves in a fatal mission when betrayed by one of their own.
The movie is brimming with classic style stunts and action set pieces, as well as lots of brooding and immaculate set design. It definitely recalls movies such as Raiders of the Lost, Lust Caution, and The Debt.
Assassination is a sprawling epic full of betrayal, honour, and sacrifice, and one of the best spy thrillers in years.
