Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
I've more or less had it with this stuff, but the film is distinguished by the grubby velocity of his foot chases, and the effectiveness of its craft (not to mention the unglamorous resolution of at least one character's fate).
– Michael Phillips,
Chicago Tribune,
4 Feb 2010
fresh:
Easily the best cop thriller since The Departed.
– J. R. Jones,
Chicago Reader,
2 Feb 2010
fresh:
The Chaser is an expert serial-killer film from South Korea and a poster child for what a well-made thriller looked like in the classic days.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

rotten:
The pessimism of Na's slick debut rings false.
– Nick Schager,
Village Voice,

fresh:
South Korean first-timer Na Hong-jin offers nasty thrills, manic foot chases and some genuinely subversive riffs on the police procedural.
