Night In Paradise (Nagwonui bam)

POSITIVE…

  • Has an interesting premise between the drama of the two main leads, the gang strife, and the particular location of the story. 

  • The pacing and tone fits well with the dark and violent story that’s mixed with melancholia and tragedy. 

  • Uhm Tae-goo as the serious gangster in hiding, and Jeon Yeo-been as the unpredictable woman he meets who is angry at life, both of them are fantastic in this! 

  • Supporting cast are also great in this. Seung-Won Cha, Park Ho-San, Lee Ki-young, plus more. 

  • Interactions between Tae-gu and Jae-yeon are definitely some of the highlights of watching this film. 

  • There’s this important meeting during a meal that was fascinating to watch. 

  • Several of the action sequences were nicely done. 

  • That last 30 minutes was just wow. 

  • Has some excellent cinematography here. 

  • Jeju Island is kinda like a character to itself.

NEGATIVE…

  • Yes, it’s yet another Asian movie about criminals and or gangsters. 

  • Might be too melodramatic in some of the plot points. 

  • It can get bloody violent. Hope you don’t mind.

  • Some people will not like how it concludes.
