Yacha (2022)
badly edited action scenes with some boring fake-drama
If this would be Koreas best action movie, I would never watch Korean movies again. Thankfully, those reviewers are probably bots or happy to see an spy thriller.
Because this is not an action movie. It has a few short action scenes, which are worse edited than "Catwoman"s basketball scene. The vibe of this movie feels like either overy dramatic or overly pseudo-funny. The actors have to work with the bumpy script and survive the overlong pseudo-cool-spy-scenes and I feel bad for them. I read "This movie is full of bloods and guts and adrenaline." Thats wrong.

When art becomes stressful
Even with this short runtime, the movie is stressful work, its overly pretentious, nearly a self-parody. The last minutes are just suffering for viewers and characters. Its bland and overly symbolic, does not create any character arc, every one of the characters is just a cut out paper, not even two dimensional. L'art pour l'art, right? But in this case, its just artificial. Meaningless. And the worst: It does not entertain. Not one moment.
