Action comedy

Confidential Assignment 2: International (NC16)

Hyun Bin plays a North Korean super-agent tracking down a drug dealer. PHOTO: GOLDEN VILLAGE 

128 minutes, now showing

 

In this sequel to action-comedy Confidential Assignment (2017), Cheol-ryung (Hyun Bin) returns as the disciplined North Korean super-agent. Also back is the laid-back South Korean cop Jin-tae (Yoo Hae-jin). Both are assigned to track down a renegade North Korean operative who has become one of South Korea’s most brutal drug dealers. 

If you took the good bits from classic odd-couple cop movies – throw in a dash of Rush Hour (1998), a splash of Bad Boys (1995) and a pinch of Lethal Weapon (1987) – the result would be this entertaining package, an action-comedy that does not take itself seriously yet never crumbles into complete silliness.

Credit must be given to Yoo, a gifted comic actor whose average Joe humanity keeps everything anchored.

Like the hit South Korean comedy Extreme Job (2019), Confidential Assignment 2: International is powered by strong, character-driven jokes and is a buddy-cop comedy better than anything Hollywood has made in ages.

 

 

Crime drama

Ted K (M18)

 

123 minutes, now showing

Better known as the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski is a Harvard-educated former professor who waged a nationwide bomb campaign between 1978 and 1995, killing three and injuring 23, to avenge modern society’s destruction of nature.

This true-crime drama spans 25 years of his radicalisation and 1996 capture following the largest Federal Bureau of Investigation manhunt in history.

Kaczynski has been the subject of television series, documentaries and a podcast. None of those, though, has the eerie verisimilitude of Ted K and a tour-de-force title performance like Sharlto Copley’s.

The American eco-terrorist lived alone without electricity in the mountains of Montana. Infuriatingly, technology encroached even in this wilderness.

The camera coats the once-pristine land in the noxious reds and yellows of industrial fumes, while an electronic score aggravates the din of logging saws and passing jets that enraged Kaczynski and literally drove him mad. Copley enacts his psychosis with febrile intensity.

These Black women are obsessed with Korean TV dramas. Here’s why.

Years before most Americans ever heard of ‘Squid Game,’ many Black women had turned to Korean scripted television for escapism and comfort.

In the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, Charmaine Lewis, a Black mother of two in Tucson, followed a recommendation from her Vietnamese and Chinese American friends and watched “Crash Landing on You” on Netflix. The series, about the implausible love story of a North Korean soldier and a South Korean fashion mogul, started her on an “addiction."
