Captivating from the very first second! This fast-paced action thriller offers very good action scenes and nail biting suspense.
There are maybe too many conveniences for one film, but bloody hell, this was entertaining! The film is very unpredictable and also very emotional at times. The acting was really good. Great editing too. The plot thickened every step of the way, adding more mystery as the film progressed. Seung-ryong Ryu is so good and likable as the anti-hero hero. Jin Goo was equally good as his brother.
'The Target' is right up there with the best Korea has to offer. This was sensational!

Sensational!
'The Target s ' an enjoyable flick...until the end
If you are a fan of action thriller movies , then you will most likely enjoy this one.The film benefits from a hard, gritty edge, with lots of brutal violence, fist fights, shoot outs, stabbings all of which pack a considerable punch thanks to some excellent choreography and stunts.
Due to the action overload, there's sadly not room for much else, and the film doesn't do quite so well in other areas.The plotting might be somewhat silly, and pretty much falls apart as soon as you think about it, but it knows how to keep you involved. Despite its flaws,"the target" is still sufficiently engaging to entertain- especially since its pace is brisk and its actors easy on the eye.Its a solid and frequently thrilling cinema which should provide genre fans with sufficient entertainment and excitement..
