DVD Review: Infernal Affairs

This is a Korean film from 2002 that is just making it to the States. Though it's from Asia, don't expect the Bullet Ballet or Wire Fu, this is a straight good cop, bad cop flick. The filmmakers keep this one dark and don't go for the cliched notes. Good dialogue, good acting and great looking cinematography (I think it was the same guy that lensed the Matrix) make this worth the rental fee and gets me intrigued in viewing more Korean films.
As for the extras, let's just say that they haven't quite figured out what makes a behind the scenes documentary work. Painfully bad...

Rating: Worth the Rent
