Intense Korean Action Thriller 'I, The Executioner' International Trailer

"If the situation turns dangerous, are we allowed to response with force?" Capelight Pictures has debuted a new official US trailer for the Korean action thriller titled I, The Executioner, which will be screening at the 2024 Toronto Film Festival soon this month. It first premiered in Cannes in the Midnight section there and should get more good reviews. This is a sequel to director Ryoo Seung-wan's 2015 film titled Veteran, though with a new title for this next thriller. I, The Executioner follows detective Seo Do-cheol, head of the Violent Crime Investigation Division, as he faces a major crisis. TIFF hypes this up: "the film's critique of vigilantism and the abuse of social media and its reflection on societal disillusionment with the legal system are timely - rooted in a collective global consciousness. Spectacular action sets and carefully orchestrated editing — enhanced by the chilling sound design — offer a high level of suspense and excitement within an emotionally charged narrative." The film stars Jung Hae-in, Hwang Jung-min, Jang Yoon-ju, and Oh Dal-su. It has a few good reviews so far and looks pretty badass – described as a "very kinetic experience." // Continue Reading ›
