A Brilliant Conflict

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Just watched this movie, not so different from others korean movie. Their gruesome, dark, horror are the common element in korean movie. If you have ever watch The Quiet Family 1998 by Kim Jee Woon(I Saw The Devil), they might look same.By the way, Paradise Murdered tell a story about a group of 17 inhabitants in 'Paradise Island'. They have a good life there. One day, 3 man killed by someone. Then, their happiness broke out and turn to become suspicious with each other.Its a black-comedy movie, but sorry to say because its comedy didn't do well but more frightening. I think they make a mistake for trying to put comedy element in this movie because it can be much better with just drama-thriller alone. We can predict what will happen next just from their awkward joke and thats so annoying. By the way, its still a good thriller movie to watch but its just forgettable. Worth watching for audiences who want to try the korean cinema for the first time.

wow. well, where to start? i'm not going to explain the plot or movie because it might ruin the twists and turns this movie takes you on.Paradise Murdered starts off on a small island community of people and workers in south Korea. someone turns up murdered and some detectives have been sent in to figure out just what the hell happened.a very claustrophobic thriller, is it a north korean spy? a curse placed on the island? a ghost coming for revenge or a simple fight over some gambling debt? korean cinema has really knocked out some great films like 'memories of murder' and 'the good the bad and the weird' and 'the chaser' and 'i saw the devil' and 'the host' and this is no exception.

Geukrakdo, a small island off the southern coast of South Korea, is home to 17 villagers, scratching out a motley, but tight-knit existence. One morning the villagers wake up to find a neighbor has been murdered, and in very bloody fashion. With communication and transportation from the island cut off, a group of villagers led by doctor Woo Seong (Park Hae Il) spearhead the search for the most likely culprit, an odd island resident who has conveniently disappeared. As the investigation continues, more victims are claimed and fingers begin to point as the increasingly desperate villagers turn against each other, letting loose inner and outer demons. Asia Torrents This Kim Han Min debut movie was comparison to Bong Joon Ho Memories of Murder. Both are set in 1980's, feature actor Park Hae Il (The Host)however this one is not based on real life incident. But for me it's nothing to compare. Memories of Murder i can find similar to The Chaser (2008) Paradise Murdered is not intense at all truly is kinda funny. Actors did they performance good, and cinematography is nicely done. Filming location is southern coast of South Korea so it have beautiful imagery. Movie takes you guessing till the end, who is the murderer? So if you are going to watch it , you don't get bored this is a great cinema, but don't expect to see another masterpiece like Memory of murder and you won't regret it Check out my lists http://www.imdb.com/user/ur23690923/? ref_=nv_usr_prof_0
