Murder Take One

 

aka: The Big Scene
South Korea 2005, 115 minutes
Dir. Jin Jang
In Korean with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Suspense/Crime / Policier

Topics: Media, Satire.

 

Aroview: Thwarted by a television agreement consigning an ongoing homicide investigation to the prying eyes of a Reality TV show, prosecutor Choi (Cha) must find new and resourceful ways of building a case against his prime suspect, perennial outsider Shin Ha Kyun (of SYMPATHY FOR MR. VENGEANCE).

An inventive take on the routine procedural, this gains fresh perspective on the movie policier with some incisive and critical thinking on media intrusion, and while not entirely successful as a coherent genre excursion, makes headway with some bold satirical strides.
