Guns & Talks (2001)

Killerdeului suda is a story of four friends, who are professional killers. The story is not a masterpiece but it is "unbelievable" and funny. There is no way one does not enjoy this kind of script.The movie is not like any other crime movies. Those four guys are really unique. They always whine about being professional but in fact they are friendly and kind more than professional. The play of the other actors/actresses in the movie worth mentioning, they really fit the four guys and the background. Also, the music -especially theme song-, camera techniques and anything i forgot to mention is flawless.This movie is so good! Please watch it if you have not, i still can't believe I missed it since 2001.

It'd be the best idea if you don't start watching it thinking it's going to be another 'Attack the Gas Station' because it isn't. This doesn't mean that the film is not entertaining, plus this film is full of jokes many people will enjoy. It simply reflects on the human side of the professional killers and it mellows your heart out if you are a diehard fan of violence or a gore fan. The hamlet scene is quite original i think and although the thriller part of the film is less than abundant, there is enough to keep it entertaining.7.4 because the killers are humans after all.

When i wander through the asian video store, i wanted to get a VCD. Being a stupid A-B-C (American Born Chinese), i picked the VCD just for their covers and whatever chinese characters i can interpret/reconize. SOOo.... i come across a cover with 4 cute guys (that's a good start) and they are assassins (ooo.. bad boys another plus), neat guns... in for a night of blood, gore and death (insert evil laugh). O man was I in for a surprise!! I was so shocked when i watched it... the scenes just blew me away. On one hand, they were blowing buildings up, shooting a guy in the head... but at the same time, there were making monologues on love and killing (hummmm... actually, i was wondering if he was going to break out into a interprative dance..heheh). This is a definite must-see movie. Even though it's in Korean; there are lots of eye candy (cute guys AND hot girls), guns, bombs, blood galore but lots of funny jokes. Love the cinematography.. just brilliant!!

Not that there is anything wrong with it, i really do appreciate such genre, starting with Reservoir dogs(1992), all the way to the recent Snatch(2000). This is one Asian version of it, less off beat more to the mild side and violence is not glorified (however candy flossed). My only mistake is that i actually purchased this film on DVD,believing that this film is as good as its rave, i set an extremely high expectation , take Sharkskin man and peach hip girl (1998) , i was expecting heaps too out of that one , and boy i wasnt the least dissapointed, that film rocks the boat! OK so i was giving a ball park estimation that this film gonna go in the tradition of Sharkskin man; lots of wacky characters with killer suits, a rocking fast and furious action and off beat dialogues.... hmmm... i guess it doesnt work that way. This views more like those Hongkong films , where every people under 30 are at their peak of hipness and being a killer doesnt stop you from having a well groomed haircut.... anyway....yeah. I'll cut it short, this film goes around 100 minutes or so , i haven't manage to finish the whole film but i'm up to the 90 minutes something and i'm guessing that there won't be any twist or a major resolution whatsoever, here we are presented with 4 pretty boy type dudes, who seems having quite alot of fun on doing their job "offing" people, naturally with this kind of film, the characters have to be unique, one have to play the mysterious sniper, whilst theres the usual wild but wacky lad, and then theres the leader, ah yes, lastly but not least , the youngest pretty boy who isn't allowed to handle guns yet , he also acts as the narrator of the story. Two of the characters the Leader of the quartet and his younger brother, the junior, are played by Korean leading Music video models, i forgot whats his name , but he plays the killer in Bi Chun Mo(1999) and the youngest played by Teen heart Throb Won Bin. You get the usual bullet time scene, and some slow mo running, and others that you wont be too surprised off if you seen the movies i mentioned above. This is an ok film, more well produced than your average straight to VCD hong kong films , a neat scene of an assasination act within the parrarels of Shakespeare's Hamlet occurs here. 3 out of 5 stars.
