Review of No Tears for the Dead (2014) by James C — 28 Jun 2016

While not entirely an original plot (think along the lines of The Replacement Killers) the story involves a hitman named Gon who while doing a job accidentally kills a young child by mistake. He is then told the job was incomplete and is then given the task of going after a woman who also happens to be the child's mother. Clearly dissatisfied with being a hitman he reluctantly flies to Korea for the job but then ends up trying to protect the woman from other assassins one of which is a good friend of his. The action sequences are great, the gore is just right, and the ending is not what you would necessarily expect. Very well done as the only drawback is it tends to shift from English language to Korean so it is something you have to pay attention to fully. Great great movie though and highly recommended.

10/10.
