I care very little about his treatise on obsession and the ethics of duty. It's a detective film that I easily forget. [Full review in Spanish]

While Tae-oh would obviously like us to believe that he's some sort of psychopathic criminal mastermind, we see pretty consistently that the man is just, well, really petty and obviously starved for attention.

Bolstered by its strong performances from Yoon-seok and Ji-hoon, Dark Figure of Crime is an enthralling and well crafted true-crime thriller.

It is a rare film with strong directing and acting that tells a compelling story with heart, mixed with suspense.
