Memories of Murder

This is a 2004 cops vs serial killer drama from the same Mr Bong as made The Host. It is good and well shot, but it suffers from a lack of ambition - you never find out too much about any of the characters or the world they live in. On the other hand it may have been the bastard-strength Polish beer I was drinking.

There is a lot to admire though - the coppers clearly learnt their kung fu skills at the Cantona academy (shame they don't get to practice on Palace fans as well) and the subtitles appear to have been compiled by Withnail. Any film which includes the line "is wanking a crime" has to be worth a look.
