The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil
Dir: Lee Won-tae
South Korea, 2019, 109 minmins, DCP
Cast: Don Lee a.k.a. Ma Dong-seok, Kim Moo-yul, Kim Sung-kyu
A series of unsolved murders leads to an unlikely alliance between a loose-cannon young cop and a hard-boiled mob boss (played by the burly charismatic Don Lee), who suffers physical injuries and loss of face by the motiveless psycho. Determined to hunt down the serial killer with disparate motives, the legal and the underworld create a galvanizing dynamic in which both collide and synthesize. A wily mix of genres juxtaposing tough actions, bloody moments and playful comedy – a high-concept thriller set to be remade in Hollywood by Sylvester Stallone.
