Iris: The Movie (2010) User Reviews

Jack Bauer Korean Style !

[Moviereeeels12 · 7/10 · 19 August 2018]

... It's a little bit on the middle budget side, such as the CGI explosions are very weak, but if you can put that a side, this film has a lot of twists and turns, plenty of action and a race against time ... worth a watch!

Director should stick to romcoms because and this movie has no direction and everyone seems lost.

This movie took Korea back 10 years in the action genre. Bad director, bad acting, bad action, and bad romance. Not sure what the director was thinking but he missed his target. If you wanna make cheesy action movies you don't need top talent. And hiring top talent won't make a bad movie good no matter how talented you are. Truly Forgettable Korean action movie inspired by a cheesy drama that didn't live to expectations. Everyone involved in this project has a confused look in there face like "why am i filming this crap...oh yeah I'm being paid" The main actor Lee Byung Hun didn't even know what direction to take his character and banked his talent to outweigh a mess of a movie. Fortunately, his next project I Saw The Devil was a masterpiece so we can forgot he was in this lost movie. Even If you have nothing better to do I suggest you watch something else.

Poor Korean psuedo-"CIA" film

The director should be fired. So many errors. He must think us viewers are stupid to overlook these blatant script goofs. And it's 2022, and no sex in the film. Even hand holding is frowned upon. No hugging, nothing romantic. All the male actors wear ties and suits and are portrayed so uptight and cold. I'm suffering through these 20 episodes cuz, at this time, there is nothing else decent among the 100+ films being offered. I would not waste my time unless, like me, you have nothing else to view. Do not view. Do not view. Do not view. I'm repeating to get the 600 characters. You may not like it. You may not like it.

Best spense action series

I couldn't stop watching the suspense thriller with lots of twists and turns throughout. I've watched lots of S Korean movies ad this is one of the best coz I was kept on my toes not knowing what's next; those are my type of movies. All the actors were great and the story makes sense and is what happens in CIA and other secret service cases where agents are either used or betrayed by their own. There are a few cases of confusion as to the role of the IRIS assassin and her relationship with an NSS agent which I could connect to the movie. Lots of romantic scenes of the 2 agents before real actin begins. Good job by cast and directors!
