caseyzhang All the characters were written in a very basic manner - no one stops to make logical decisions. People on similar sides of the conflict don't communicate, which may make the movie more dramatic, but instead l was left bewildered at why people were doing what they were doing.On the plus side, the acting was really good - especially the daughter So Mi and the main character.

jedavis-46864 The film "The Man from Nowhere" is a really good film. It showed that people aren't always as they seem. The main character Cha Tae-shik was known as the creepy, quiet neighbor and pawnshop keeper that people thought would rape young children. He becomes fond of his next-door neighbor, Somi. At the beginning of the film, Somi's mother steals drugs from a drug trafficking organization. This causes Somi and Cha Tae-shik to get involved. The drug traffickers kidnap Somi and her mother, Hyo-jeong. Throughout the film we see Cha Tae-shik take many risks to get Somi back and to make sure she remains alive. He puts himself in major danger to save the one person he really cares about. He fights to save Somi from her kidnappers. This shows that he isn't as he seems. He is actually a kind, caring person that wants to protect a young girl.

instantlove It's been years since my initial watching and I can still say that every viewing feels like the first, and that's primarily due to the fact that; the characters are perfectly written, the action sequences are amazing executed, and the cinematography is immaculately directed. It's honestly the biggest shame that Won Bin is inactive as an actor, considering the fact that his performance in this film rivals some of his highly praised, acting-focused, celebrity peers. (Such as Lee Byunghun, particularly his performance in another excellent revenge-film called I Saw the Devil).

thmurphy-37414 The movie, The Man from Nowhere is one of the best movies I have seen in the past year, that has to do with a foreign film. I guess it had something to do with all of the action, but I just really enjoyed watching it. There are a few moments where you have to think about it and try to come to a reality where something would actually take place. Yet, due to the main character's past and everything that he has gone through, it is really hard to tell just why he does everything that he does. To start it off, I will go with the relationship between the man and the prostitute's daughter. There will be many spoilers, but to carry on with my point... There are many different reasons for why the man chases after the girl after she is taken away due to her mother's involvement with the drug ring is South Korea. Etc... Anyway, I believe he does this due to the loss of his daughter and his wife. As they were taken away so abruptly, he never had a chance to save them. Yet, now he actually does have a chance to save the little girl that he somewhat sees his wife/daughter in. Despite this, the movie puts a view on the trafficking of body parts and the use of children. As no one would suspect a child to do anything harmful. They use this to their edge and due to that it is a huge problem. This movie is a 9 out of 10. I would recommend anyone watches it.
