Six years on from the success of the first buddy-buddy cop movie we get this follow-up, which expands the action to an international level. I felt that, on the whole, this film has the edge to its predecessor. The two main characters are back and their camaraderie feels more effortless, more natural here, and it helps that Hyun Bin's character comes across as less abrasive and more likeable too. There's a new American character who's okay, plus some returning others. You can tell that this is a bigger budget production because the action is more frequent and more explosive, while the choreography continues to impress. A slight but fun comedic thriller.
I haven't seen the original film Gongjo/Confidential Assignment, but I did hear that it was a pretty average "turn your brain off and enjoy" action flick, so I went into this with zero expectations. I was actually hooked from beginning to end, as the action scenes were surprisingly satisfying, the music during said scenes got me pumped up, and the comic relief was very tastefully done. In a nutshell, I would describe it as a cross between "The Man From Nowhere" and "Extreme Job." As those are two of my favorite Korean flicks, I enjoyed this one very much and would recommend it to all action fans who also have an interest in Korean films.
Highly disappointing. Each and every aspect associated with the movie feels unpolished and shallow, from acting to direction and from music to storyline. It's prequel was much much better compared to this, this movie is just unable to hold on to the legacy and charm of its predecessor. The most disappointing factor out of all was storyline. Baseless and senseless and logicless. Entire movie you struggle to understand what is happening. The director also seems confuse. Randomly placed scenes give this movie a unstructured dimension. Had High Hopes and expectations from this one considering the level of promotion and offcourse the cast, but fails to engage and satisfy audience. Could have been done in a much much better manner.
Bomb dive into an empty pool , a pool that once where filled with good old original stuff that has become generic like the word genre. But by all means, if you like actioncomedy from the 80's youll might find the actors and stupid romance pretty suitable for you, because south corean comedy with ''a slap in the face'' commands and huge set explotions and shootouts thats out of the realms of this world can be funny and the s.k. Agent of the 3 musqito eaters is just eminent in his facts and follies, hes the kind that looks like a salt and pepper dispenser, a mouthful of corean comedy talent.
But its not more than entertainment now, 35 years too late to be called exceptional, just a 6 from the grumpy old man.
