Fight devils

"Secret Agent" is another proper anti-Japanese spy war film. There are quite a lot of movies of this type in South Korea, and it seems that the devils have not suffered less before. Song Kanghao led a bunch of old faces. Needless to say, his acting skills were steady, especially that of the Japanese spy captain and his cruel and maddening acting skills, which impressed me deeply. From the plot of the spy war at the beginning, to the search for the inner ghost after getting on the train, to the banquet where the enemy is blown up at the end, the overall plot and rhythm are quite interesting. Although this kind of film with the main theme inevitably reflects heroism, it is really slightly better than the mainland film with the same theme. Good character portrays should be both good and evil, and they will have their own thoughts and worries, and they are definitely not a brainy, passionate young man. Under the entanglement of human nature, the final decision was made for various reasons, which convinced the audience.

I also think of the film "Assassination" that I watched a few days ago. I personally feel that it is not inferior to that one, but the score is a lot worse.
