There is no motivation attributed to the antagonist other than 'he is a spawn of demon'. His past in a oppressive system could be taken into account. His father perhaps? But nah. 'He did it because he can' is the best they came up with. And a hint about his reproductive organ. Groundbreaking.

There is no female character in the whole movie and the very few female "characters" exist without any lines other than begging for their lives. They as mere tools for the antagonist to display his cruelness. Most of the scenes with cruelty were unnecessary considering what the audience gathered so far against the character of the antagonist. It is so much that it is hard to not question the motive of the director.

Also some of the scenes of protagonist come off as complete bs. Totally realistic scenes are not what one looks for in action movies but when they are also unimaginative, it leaves a bad taste. Police force ganging up on national intelligence like they are a bunch of street thugs? Really?

This is a power/revenge fantasy movie that is catered for male audience and it doesnt require for much critical thinking. On the contrary, you need to turn it off to enjoy it.

South Korean movie industry produces one of the finest movies, especially action thrillers and this one is no exception. Even though a one time watch, offers one of the best action scenes, screenplay, direction, dialogues. Nail biting thriller you are looking for. Highly Engaging and serves the purpose that is entertainment.

REVIEW:

• The story was really interesting but there were parts that seemed too slow (scenes without action). By the second half of the movie, there were twist and turns happened made things a lot better.
• You would get really mad at most of the scenes but the ending was very good.
• There are so many morbid/brutal scenes. I almost stopped watching in the beginning because of it.
• Action scenes were really good and intense.
• I was shocked to see Peter Stormare (Lucifer from Constantine movie) here.
• I was really amazed at Lee Jong Suk here because he was so scary at some of the scenes. This is the first time I saw him as a villain and he did a great job especially since his previous characters were good guys.
• Jang Dong Gun and Kim Myung-min were amazing in their respective roles.

SHOULD YOU WATCH IT: Your choice. Take note that there are many morbid scenes.

V.I.P." is an impressive action crime thriller, which includes all elements that made the genre a huge success internationally.
