H is one great Korean action thriller. It was a movie about a team of Korean police investigators trying to catch a murderer committing a serial murder. A team of crime investigators headed by Kim Mi-yun is summoned to a garbage dump, where a disgustingly mutilated body of a high school girl is discovered, along with a fetus removed from her body and deposited in a brown bag. Another pregnant woman is strangled to death in a bus, her belly cut open, spilling out a still-moving unborn child. They find that the modus operandi of these gruesome murders is an exact replica of the ones perpetrated in the past by the psychotic Shin Hyun,now a condemned inmate. The police naturally conclude that a copycat is carrying out these new murders. Detectives Kim and Kang, however, are convinced that Shin Hyun is somehow committing the murders without ever leaving his jail.The never failed to deliver. The acting was excellent led by Yeom Jeong- Ah and Chi Jin-hee as Detectives Kim and Kang respectively. While the psychotic Shin Hyun,played excellently by Jo Seung-woo,is a lot better as compared to Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lecter. Watch it for this character alone. The movie was very interesting from beginning to end. This is a great action movie. It only shows that Korean cinema is not only great in making romantic films but action thrillers as well.This is a classic action film but it remains to be an underrated film. Highly recommended for everyone who loves action films.

The brilliance of this film does not lie in its basic thriller plot nor its characters (The characters are not terribly interesting, but the film does not dwell long on their personal lives; The serial-killer plot, while over-used, is paced enough to keep interest.)Truly, the one reason to watch this film is for the fact that everything--- every action, every line spoken--- leads up to the conclusion. This movie is so perfectly woven that there is not a hair, so to speak, out of place! How few movies are like this one!Basically, if you want a good story, read a book. If you want a well done film, watch "H".

H by Jong-hyuk Lee is an amazing thriller with a plot twist at the end that will make you cringe. The film is definitely riffing off the American psychological cop drama, namely Seven and the Silence of the Lambs. That's what makes this film great. It takes those films, and takes it a step further. First, the film is shot beautifully. Second, the story follows three detectives who are tracking the crimes of a murderer who kills pregnant women and slashes their stomachs. Some of the murder scenes are totally gory. The three detectives are rather atypical personalities but it works well for the story….The woman is short haired and is quiet, calm, and always smoking cigarettes. She's tough like Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs. She is the one who counters the main character who is more like Brad Pitt in Seven. He's the fast talking guy, he's often late to the crime scenes because he's just not on top of things. And the third guy is the fat klutz who always trips over things and he's the comic relief.As the film progresses, we discover that the murders of the pregnant women are done in the exact same way as murders done years ago by a murderer who was put in jail by these same detectives six months ago. The fast talking cop becomes the Clarice Starling as he goes to interview this Hannibal Lechter type character. Through these interviews, he tries to track down the new killer who is copying the murderer's past deeds.Ultimately the twist ending is really intense, and you probably wont guess what it is….it's a lot cooler than putting the cop's wife's head in a box like in Seven. This movie is really creepy and the performances are great. It's definitely worth watching.

HI am a huge fan of the Korean serial killer drama Tell me something. So when the review on the box of this movie said `tell me something esque' I thought I would give it a shot. My history with Korean films are hit or miss. This is a miss. I will say this the plot twist is something you would never see in American film. Of course you would also never see it in reality either.The film is paced so boring. Maybe the moody feeling just doesn't translate but I think the film was going for the SEVEN moody feeling. The camera work was somewhat interesting. The gore was there. The acting was so so. In the end I kinda had to force myself to finish it.I would say if you have a choice get `tell me something' instead.
