Wannabe Goodfellas but missing the spirit.
Loyalty, deception, greed, arrogance, corruption, integrity, well it just holds too many elements in storytelling of being an epic gangster movie with some comical. You’ll find a fascinating tale of how one small custom officer rose to the top of Busan’s underworld and then fell back down.South Korea declared war on organized crime in 1990. Thousands of people were arrested, from bodyguards to kingpins. Nameless Criminal: Rules of the Time begins in 1990 with the arrest of Choi Ik-Hyun (Choi Min-Sik), a leading gangster in Busan. He claims to be a civil servant, but who would believe a reputed gangster? He finds a significant amount of drugs while working and sells it to the mob. That specific mob is run by Choi Hyung-Bae (Ha Jung-Woo), a distant cousin of Ik-Hyun. And so begins Ik-Hyun’s entrance into the shabby underworld. It’s a classic case of muscle and intellect. Ik-hyun is a businessman who recognizes that the world they live in is ruled by corruption and greed. He pursued politicians and prosecutors, while Hyung-bae ruthlessly eliminated competing gangs in order to expand their territory. Over the course of a decade, they evolve to become the city’s two most prominent criminal lords. However, in a gangster film, a beautiful climb is followed by a self-inflicted fall. Ik-hyun and Hyun-bae had already turned on each other by the time the authorities commence their assault on organized crime.
This smartly written drama revolves around the two leads’ difficult interplay, despite consistently devoted performances. Female roles are rare in organized crime films, but Kim Hye-eun stands out as a cold-blooded nightclub queen.
Ha Jung Woo and Choi Min Sik are two of Korea’s most versatile actors, and their performances in ‘I Saw the Devil’ and ‘Oldboy’ prove that they are equally capable of bringing a new level of realism to the film. Great job!
This movie is kind of like Goodfellas, a classic from Martin Scorsese. Both movies did establish a tense presenting an underground character’s long shot career in order to generate both our sympathy and revulsion towards them.
You should give it a shot if you’re seeking for a well-written tale of the underworld of gangs.
Well done Korean style gangster movie
First, forgive me for sounding redundant, but in my opinion, Korean movies nowadays has surpassed Hollywood movies in term of storyline. I just can’t stand how nowadays CGI has become kind of plague in almost every major movies of Hollywood with thin storyline. Not that CGI is a bad thing really but it just kinda hurt to see how decent Hollywood movies without CGI or dirty teen humor are failing in today’s box office.And although it’s not a Hollywood produced, but watching ‘Nameless Gangster’ is like a remedy to bring back those old sweet experiences when movies are all but the lavish computer generated images. Loyalty, deception, greed, arrogance, corruption, integrity, well it just hold too much elements in storytelling of being an epic gangster movie with some comical situation which wouldn’t hurt nobody. You won’t find bullets flying or machetes swinging but you’ll find a compelling story of how a minor custom officer build up his career through the top of Busan underground society and the downfall later on.
While it’s not fair to compare Nameless Gangster head to head with classic Scorsese’s picture like Goodfellas, but one can’t help but to notice the similarity, and indeed both movies did build the same tense of depicting the long shot career of an underground character to build both our sympathy and repulsion. Choi Min Sik is a real versatile Korean actor, he has done a stretch range of convincing acting from a vicious protagonist in ‘Oldboy’ to a brutal serial killer in ‘I Saw the Devil’, and here he scored once again to add more depth to the movie with Ha Jung Woo putting the equal class of performance. Just great.
So give it a try if you’re looking for a well packed story of a gangland world, but in Korean style if not to say in Eastern style, mind you!
It’s a shame this movie didn’t get enough attention as it should be…
