Viewing Notes
Wild to watch this movie after watching COLD EYES twice. It’s a smaller, lower stakes story yet nearly exactly the same. Just wild to see how the story beats are done differently here. But you can see how the Korean remake added a nuances to improve aspects of the movie. In addition to spending more on the production.
Was happy to find this on dailymotion today since there’s no other release I could find.
