My review
There are moments where Chan-wook's greatness shines through, but as an overall package it doesn't doesn't quite stand as an equal to his other greats. Still very much a good film, it is beautifully shot and crafts a noir atmosphere, but I was not completely sold on the depth of the central relationship and the pacing/editing was a bit offbeat.
Plot overview
From a mountain peak in South Korea, a man plummets to his death. Did he jump, or was he pushed? When detective Hae-joon arrives on the scene, he begins to suspect the dead man’s wife Seo-rae. But as he digs deeper into the investigation, he finds himself trapped in a web of deception and desire.
