（短評）映画『ただ悪より救いたまえ』

『ただ悪より救いたまえ』（2020年、韓国、英題：Deliver Us from Evil、原題：다만 악에서 구하소서）

未だ会ったことのない実の娘を救おうとする暗殺者のインナム、そこへ報復のため彼を狙うレイが乱入して地元警察を巻き込む大乱闘が始まる‼️

臓器売買ビジネスからの娘の救出劇と狂気的な殺し屋とのバトル&追跡劇を混ぜることで展開の幅とスリルが高まっており面白い👍

やはりメインの2人、ファン・ジョンミンとイ・ジョンジェが素晴らしいです‼️

ファン・ジョンミンがこんなに日本の下町風景に馴染むとは😲

そしてイ・ジョンジェ、凄みとどうみてもネジが飛んでるエクストリームな感じを見事に演じています👍他の映画と全然雰囲気違うぞ💨

役者ってすごいですねー😅

初めて会う実の娘との絆を感じる演出がもう少しあれば、終盤の展開がより重く感じられたのかなと思います💨

銃撃やカーアクションは流石の出来栄え、韓国映画の乱闘バトルやカーアクションは質が高いものが多いですね‼️

終盤の市街戦やカーチェイスはとても見応えがありました👍

"for a long time I’ve wanted to give you a gift. it’s quite humble, but if you don’t dislike it, please accept it." - Ri Myong-un

Park Seok-young (Hwang Jung-min), a.k.a Black Venus is a South Korean spy who is sent on a covert mission to infiltrate North Korea’s inner circle during the 1990s, a time of heightened tensions and political manoeuvring between the two Koreas.

read my review below (may contain spoilers):

watched November 27th, 2024 on netflix

this is prolly the best political movie I’ve ever watched, hands down. I was kinda expecting some kind of action-packed James Bond-esque spy thriller, but nope - Gongjak is completely different. and I mean that in the best way possible. it doesn’t try to wow us with explosions or death-defying stunts. instead, it’s all about the quiet tension, the slow burn of strategy, and the insane layers of deceit and double-dealing. what’s fascinating is how it captures the 1990's so well, during South Korea’s election period, with such authenticity. it feels so real, like I’ve actually gone back into that time (although I wasn't born yet when the movie takes place ahaha). the long shots and wide lenses let me soak in every detail. the backgrounds, props, and even the tiniest objects are like characters themselves, telling stories without saying a word. every shot is so stunning, I struggled a bit to pick screenshots for this review ahaha. I’m not joking when I say this entire movie could be framed and hung in a gallery. it’s really that photogenic. the aesthetic? on point. seriously, everything just looks good. from the sets to the costumes, and yes, even the people. and well, I actually watched this moive for Ju Ji-hoon. he looks so different from his usual roles that I almost missed him, but let’s just say, no complaints here. he’s sleek and polished here, but there’s this rawness to his character that totally fits the tone of the movie. but I also love other actors, especially Hwang Jung-min who is the main lead here.

I gotta say, there’s something deeply human about this film.. even with all the big political stuff going on. sure, it doesn’t really hit me in the gut emotionally, apart from a few moments here and there that feel a bit flat, but the final scene? oh-em-gee. I don’t know how anyone could laugh at that. I sobbed like a fool. it’s such a small, quiet moment, but it’s packed with so much emotion. I actually had to pause the movie for several seconds and collect myself before I finished the movie. the story shows how politics is such a messy, manipulative game. I learn quickly that no one’s truly innocent here. everyone’s got their own agenda. and trust? forget about it. by the end, I feel so bad for the spy, used and discarded like he’s nothing. it’s tragic and frustrating, but it also makes me think; can this cold war between North and South Korea ever end when it’s all about propaganda and power struggles? watching this, I can’t help but wish these two countries would put their differences aside; like siblings fighting over nonsense when they’re clearly meant to be on the same side. this film is a masterpiece. it’s quiet but powerful, subtle yet inspiring. this movie leaves me with this strange mix of hope and sadness. hope that someday, North and South Korea can find their way back to each other.

final verdict: I totally loved it!!

A predictable but solid detective thriller wrapped inside stylish visuals and intense action.
