A fantastic Jeon Do-yeon makes the 'mom's a hired killer' thriller Kill Boksoon into something special. Aparita's review:
Any mother will recognize the emotion with which veteran Korean actress Jeon Do-yeon delivers this line, playing ruthless assassin Gil Bok-soon. I may know nothing about the ability to mark an opponent’s neck with a felt-tip marker, but I am well-familiar with the exhaustion and constant gnawing in your mind, especially when you’re a single parent., as it was making waves at the 73 Berlin International Film Festival last month, I was immediately intrigued.
The scene immediately transfers to the shopping aisles of a grocery store in a transition smooth as butter. And the plot just keeps building. There’s some level of story about Gil Boksoon being part of a company of gangsters with strict rules, and that a renewal of her work contract is coming up. She has to contend with both professional rivalry and the eyerolls and smart-alecky answers from her sassy daughter Gil Jae-yeong .
Spy stories or yarns about assassins are an intriguing opportunity for character study. The idea of a mild-mannered character with a secret identity tickles a lot of curiosities. How did they end up doing the job they do? How do they deal with co-workers or families? What does a bad day for them look like? These portrayals become downright fascinating if the protagonist is an unlikely one—the surprise factor is always a neat trick.
