Mission Possible (2021) User Reviews

An average action comedy movie

[Misss25 · 7/10 · 25 April 2021]

The movie was really good! It's a family movie, so anyone can enjoy this with whole family laughing all the time. It's the perfect mix of action and comedy. The action scenes were so satisfactory and the main leads did a great job. The comedy scenes were seriously funny.

I said average movie because we have already seen so many movies like this . It's mostly like Jacky Chan's action comedy movies ,of course no one can compete him in action scenes.

So,If you don't keep high expectations about storyline,uniqueness then you can enjoy this movie as comedy movie.

If you are inclined towards comedy category movies and enjoy those hilarious & refreshing laughs just go for it ✨

Quite entertaining...

[paul_haakonsen · 6/10 · 26 November 2022]

As I stumbled upon the 2021 South Korean action crime comedy "Mi-Syeon Pa-Seo-Beul" (aka "Mission: Possible") here late in 2022, of course I opted to sit down and watch it without ever having heard about it. Given my fascination with Asian cinema, and this being a movie that I hadn't already seen, then there was no doubt about me sitting down to watch it.

And I have to say that the movie's cover alone and its title made it all the more appealing and interesting.

Director Kim Hyeong-Joo managed to put togethe a rather enjoyable and entertaining movie, as it contained good elements from the various genres of movies. And the storyline in the movie was well-written and nicely brought to life on the screen.

There are some pretty good laughs throughout the course of the movie, and the action sequences are quite nicely choreographed and executed on the screen, which makes this movie all the more enjoyable to watch.

The acting performances in the movie were good, and they had two rather nicely talented leading performers in Kim Young-kwang (playing Woo Su-Han) and Sun-Bin Lee (playing Yoo-Da Hee).

I was genuinely entertained by this movie and it is something that I will warmly recommend, especially if you enjoy Asian action comedies.

My rating of "Mi-Syeon Pa-Seo-Beul" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Patience required... and rewarded.

This bit of fluff starts off seeming irredeemably silly, with a mistaken-identity pairing for a confusing spy mission. One might be tempted (as I was) to look elsewhere within the first 30, or so, minutes. That first impression of a poor Jackie Chan action comedy wannabe lingers for a while, but, as counselors might say to troubled teens, it gets better.

About halfway in, the inane plot and odd pair of protagonists start to make more sense. Even better, some really good fight choreography and stunt work join the proceedings, greatly reducing the gap between this one and any of Jackie's templates. Overall, nothing memorable, but still an amusing diversion that finishes much stronger than its shaky start portends.

A good ole action-comedy

[sleeping_tiger · 7/10 · 4 May 2021]

One of the things I like about this movie is the comedy doesn't interfere with the action. It's not slap-stick humor either. Also, a few of the action scenes are bloody, whether it's knife-play or gun-play. I'm surprised South Korea produced such a movie in the action-comedy genre, but it's a welcome surprise. Just as typical action-comedy films from South Korea, the two leads are bad-asses. But, it gets hinted at from the very beginning, so it's not like it's thrown into the audiences face unrealistically, half-way or even toward the end, like Extreme Job did.

One time watch

[m-ramanan · 7/10 · 1 June 2021]

RATED 7/10 Lagnauge: Korean

Funny action drama with predictable story line... no dull moments and its definitely one time watch...

Mission Possible

[chakravortysuvo · 7/10 · 2 August 2021]

Mission Possible is Mission Dope!!!!!!!! I started the movie without any expectations at all but seriously, this one surprised me as hell. It's funny and got some decent actions, as simple as it sounds but as a combo of those... man, I just loved it.

Comedy ft. Action

[ayfaizah · 8/10 · 28 April 2021]

I love the way this film open with a concept of comedy but still put the action scenes behind it. Maybe I can said that this movie's genre was a comedy but have an action touch on it. Because in my opinion this storyline didn't tell much about the behind story of the character. So you can expect this movie to be an action movie, I guess.

But over all, this movie still entertaining~ I still get the intention with the fight scenes and laugh at the same time.

Sweet time

[kumar_delish · 6/10 · 15 February 2022]

Not boring movie one time watchable not fully action flick comedy mixed action movie There are lot of movies like this Korean gangster and cop.cat and mouse Easy predictable plot but movie nitration go well no bored on any part but conversations are more action sequences are less.

Striking Action, Witty Repartee, Close Combat

[cageronimolaw · 10/10 · 21 April 2024]

Action packed!! As usual, Kim Young-Kwang is great - little did I know he could do close combat!! There are anumber of funny moments that make it more then just an action-packed 'good vs Evil' movie. I would really like to see the beginning and the next episode in Woo Soo-Han's story.

You will cheer on the protagonists. Soo-Han starts as a down on his luck dog-finding private eye but turns into a super fast, super skilled partner.

There are a number of comedic moments which allow you to breathe. Some good chemistry between the leads.

If you like action, hand to hand combat, witty snarky comedy, one great looking man, a super competent fighting woman, then watch this movie, you will love it.

A Case Involving Gun Smuggling and Mistaken Identity

[Uriah43 · 6/10 · 20 April 2024]

This film essentially begins with the discovery by Chinese intelligence that some weapons intended to be secretly shipped to North Korea had been stolen by some gun smugglers and sent to South Korea instead. Recognizing the impossibility of correcting the situation--and fearing that the South Korean government might hold them responsible for this illegal transfer of goods--Chinese authorities decide to send an agent to South Korea to correct the situation. At least, that's what they hope South Korean officials believe when everything falls apart, as it is certain to happen. So, rather than send one of their best agents, they select a young female trainee under the name of "Yoo Da-hee" (Lee Sun-bin) on this suicidal mission instead. For her part, Yoo Da-hee is unaware of the actual dangers and, upon arriving in Seoul, makes contact with her handler for assistance. What she doesn't realize is that, rather than meeting another Chinese agent, she mistakenly makes contact with an inept private detective named "Woo Su-han" (Kim Young-kwang) who has absolutely no clue about anything. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film turned out to be a better action-comedy than I initially expected. Admittedly, I would have preferred a bit more comedy here and there but, even so, I enjoyed this film for the most part, and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.

Fabulous surprise

[garryforbescalgary · 9/10 · 11 November 2023]

I cannot believe this movie has a low rating. It was laugh out laugh, without ever being ridiculous. It can be difficult to blend humor and action. This movie pulled it spectacularly. Both leads worked well together. It was quite late in the movie that we learn about one of the characters, I liked that development. I worried that they would go for the obvious and have the leads linked romantically. Nope. They played it straight. While there was clever editing, all the fight scenes were realistic. Nice pacing, I enjoyed the film from first shot to last. I realize that movies with subtitles are not everyone's taste. I can only rate this as highly as possible and hope more people discover this gem.

Entertaining Action Film

[laurieeverett · 8/10 · 11 July 2023]

This is a well balanced action movie, with humor, great acting, and highly interesting/ well choreographed fighting scenes.

The story line has some fun twists and turns, a few surprises, and plenty of chuckles.

Kim Young-Kwang is perfect for this role! His facial expressions alone could carry his acting...full of a myriad of circumstances. T. Cruise could learn a lot from him. His best role yet!

Lee Sun-bin carries her own action with beauty and finesse. The secondary characters just add to the story in the way they are supposed to, supportive but not overbearing.

One of my favorite films!
