Almost single-handedly resuscitates the moribund serial killer genre.

Joon-ho Bong lets viewers fall into the cops' frustrations, but these detectives are dogged, not downtrodden. "Memories" shows their lives, however tortured, outside the case - like "Heat" without antagonistic rivalries or a more political "Zodiac."

Bong not only has an eye for beauty there are some gorgeous shots of the country's farmland but for the absurd.

Utiliza seu mistério (real) envolvendo o primeiro serial killer sul-coreano para fazer um forte comentário político e, no processo, cria uma narrativa tensa (mas também divertida) povoada de personagens tragicamente ineptos.

Uses dark humor, incisive characterizations and social commentary to infuse its familiar detective tale with a distinctive flair.

What's singular in all this is the director's angle into the material, which is subtle, difficult to pin down, elusive.

A much better movie than the more recent and more heralded "Mother", another movie about a killer.

Memories of Murder is such a taut, effective thriller it's a shame you have to read subtitles to gauge just how good a movie it is.

It plays as quite a refreshing take on this style, and, except for the heavy handed ending, proves to be an enjoyable and provocative flick, definitely worth seeking out.

An involving and skillfully mounted film from Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-Ho that's based on a true story.

Establishes Bong as a helmer with a distinct vision of his own, supported by a strong cast that's totally at one with the material.
