Good Enough
PennyReviews31 March 2019
Hit and Run Squad had a nice idea about the plot. However, it felt like that idea got lost. I liked that the story had a main lead but a hidden lead as well. And the performances from all the actors and actresses were really good. However, some scenes were confusing and they made it difficult to understand the whole story. But, the action scenes were enjoyable as well as the car chasing scenes that were exciting and entertaining. So, six out of ten, because, even though the cinematography and the performances were good, the story felt a bit short.

Characterization sells the movie.

I love GHJ in anything she does, but her 2 male leads are also excellent. Though the plot is thin, the film builds characters to care about, especially Min-Jae, played by Ryu Joon Yeol, rightly becoming one of Korea's leading actors.

Saved by the acting and the technical aspects

Warning: Spoilers
The film has a good premise, but the runtime is too long and the pacing is somewhat slow, by the time the movie reach one hour or so, you are already bored to death. the plot is not that complicated, it could be told in an hour and half at best.

There was a forced twist halfway through the movie, that made the whole thing personal to the protagonist. The chances that the protagonist's father and the bad guy having an accident in the middle some road, are gigantically low but it sorta just happened here. The movie gets overly dramatic sometimes, and the protagonist is somewhat unlikable, at times I find myself rooting for the bad guy. I don't understand why some characters have to behave irrational to prove a point or to show their disappointment eg hitting someone with a book, slapping a person, pushing them etc this is common in Korean movies I don't know why they have to act like, so irrational.



The characters are well-developed, and the actors did justice to their respective characters. the cinematography was excellent, the cool cars and awesome car chase scenes were a treat to the eyes. There was a hint for a sequel, which I highly doubt it's going to happen.

Enjoyable but...
misyelhasanah-0613925 August 2019
The movie is good, from the characters, scenes and chemistry. However, the background of the story is just like a typical korean action crime movie or drama. Nothing special...

A decent action thriller
mister_bateman10 February 2020
It's an entertaining movie with interesting characters and some great action scenes. Sometimes it's a bit over the top though and the "tough female cop" feminism thing is tedious and off-putting, as usual. I was never bored so you can definitely give it a watch, however, like some other reviewers said, it's nothing special.

Surpassed My Expectation!

I was imagining this plot in my mind before and while watching the movie, but there are unexpectedly lots of twists, so it was kinda refreshing to watch! Plus, the lead casts and supporting roles' acting were awesome! Immediately went to spread the words about this movie to my friends! Good work!

Mad Racer turns Criminal !
saptesh78624 June 2019
It is a good action thriller especially having sports car racing sequences. The story of a mad but clever sports car racer, Jung-Suk Jo ( Jung Jae-chul) who is responsible for intentionally dashing by his car and police squad for hit and run cases where a brilliant cop, Jun-yeol-Ryn ( Seo Min-jae) analysing every case with his investigation and getting perfect guessed results and demoted lady officer, Hyo-Jin Kons. One day mad driver killed his father by car accident, then Seo is seeking his revenge, but some situations do not let him to do. What is the end and you can see the movie. Good story and good action. Car chasing scenes are fantastic and highlight of the movie. Characters are having uncertain behaviour and wonder you often. Acting by bad boy is brilliant and rest are just okay. End is open for might sequel, but it is Korean movie and Korean gets sequels are rare.
