Watch The Man from Nowhere For Free

The Worst Film Ever

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

For me there are a bunch of films that leave an impression later after soaking in the scenes and pondering on them for a while. Most of blockbuster films usually have one (or more) notes that comes off wrong and ruins the entire orchestra, leaving a bad taste and wishing I could just forget it forever. Some films have less spikes and are easier to watch without getting overtly jolted. Some really have a nice overall tune that I would probably go as far to say I would purchase the Blu-ray film to support the creators. Then there are some really well made films that fit the bill perfectly and even surprise when you least expect it. Yup you guessed this film is just great from beginning to end. The highlights are the realistic fighting scenes that use real world gravity, and the camera shots that are crystal clear. The film is raw and exposes real world problems like drugs, prostitution and child exploitation. Would be a 10/10 but in reality it's a 9.5/10 due to the extreme violence that our hero retorts to for immediate justice. Also, the hero persona more than likely caters to an Asian market while in the west it may seem different. Overall, this film needs to be played in theaters and needs some awards so that a wider audience may praise it and we may all be jolly in agreement.

The Man From Nowhere was one of the best films that I have watched this year. Not only was it a well put together action movie, but there was also a little comedy thrown in to help spice things up. It was also interesting to see how they placed the story from different perspectives as well. I really enjoyed looking at things from the DEA's perspective, as well as So-Mi's perspective. One thing that did confuse me about this film was both the presence and lack of guns. It seemed like all of the police were able to obtain guns, and at one point so was the main character. However, almost no one in the drug ring had guns, and when they did it was only for specific parts. I don't know if that's coming from an United States perspective where guns are plenty around here, but it seemed like there wasn't as many as there could have been. Everything else about the movie was fantastic, especially the fighting sequences.

This was a very intense movie to watch. It had many exciting elements to it as well as many sad moments. The story follows a man named Cha Tae Shik. He served as part of a special operations unit in the military and went completely under the radar after the death of his wife. The only people he has left are a drug abusive dancer and her little daughter who is only a toddler. When a South Korean gang takes the mother and kills her to fuel their black market organ trade, they take her daughter as hostage. Cha Tae Shik wont stop until he gets the dancer's daughter back. In the meantime, the cops are also going after the gang members, but they get needlessly distracted with Shik. This movie had many intense action scenes in it. It was petty easy to watch at some points but at others it became very hard. For example when the garbage truck slammed into Shik's car, killing his wife and unborn baby. Or when the trunk of one of the gang's cars is popped open, revealing the dead, harvested body of the mother. One of my favorite scenes was in the end, after Cha Tae Shik had killed all of the bad guys and was in the parking lot. Out of the dark came the daughter, in good health, and ran towards him. This relieved basically all of the suspense and tension that nearly the entire movie had built up. I also noticed how clever some of the camera angles were. My favorite was when Shik was running into the subway station. As he entered, it was raining and the camera was facing down as the water droplets fell away from the viewer. It created a very cool effect in my opinion.

The movie, The Man from Nowhere is one of the best movies I have seen in the past year, that has to do with a foreign film. I guess it had something to do with all of the action, but I just really enjoyed watching it. There are a few moments where you have to think about it and try to come to a reality where something would actually take place. Yet, due to the main character's past and everything that he has gone through, it is really hard to tell just why he does everything that he does. To start it off, I will go with the relationship between the man and the prostitute's daughter. There will be many spoilers, but to carry on with my point... There are many different reasons for why the man chases after the girl after she is taken away due to her mother's involvement with the drug ring is South Korea. Etc... Anyway, I believe he does this due to the loss of his daughter and his wife. As they were taken away so abruptly, he never had a chance to save them. Yet, now he actually does have a chance to save the little girl that he somewhat sees his wife/daughter in. Despite this, the movie puts a view on the trafficking of body parts and the use of children. As no one would suspect a child to do anything harmful. They use this to their edge and due to that it is a huge problem. This movie is a 9 out of 10. I would recommend anyone watches it.
