Decision to Leave - Reviews

It’s a gorgeously and grippingly made picture and Tang Wei is magnificent.

...casting an intoxicating spell, one you may well find lingering around for days after you see it.

It’s about trust, you see, about letting go, and doing so will reveal as sublimely satisfying a romantic mystery as you're likely to see.

The South Korean auteur known for squid-chomping, luxe erotica and graphic torture is back with a seductive mystery thriller.

...with Decision To Leave, Park expands his formidably-deep skill set.

...an extravagant and hopelessly romantic thriller that weaves past and present into something entirely its own.

...the year’s most addictive K-drama so far.

Yes, this is an erotic cop thriller. Fortunately, though, it’s a Park Chan-wook erotic cop thriller.

Reminiscent of Hitchcock, the tone is seamless, the performances by Park Hae-il and Tang Wei are flawless, and the storytelling is addictively satisfying and engrossing.

...Park’s funny, playful, and increasingly poignant crime thriller is less interested in what Hae-joon (Park Hae-il) knows about his suspect than in how he feels about her.

...a dizzyingly complex drama with an eye for Vertigo.

...et mesterværk af et detektivmysterium, der blander erotik og kryptiske mordgåder, så det er en fuldfed fornøjelse.

...en øjeblikkelig nyklassiker inden for thrillergenren, der veksler perfekt mellem åndeløs spænding, overlegen stilistisk elegance og hjerteknusende melodrama.
