Mr. Socrates
Mr. Socrates  | Genre: Action, Crime Directed by Jin-won Choi Starring: Shin-il Kang, Rae-won Kim, Jong-hyeok Lee Release date: 2005 Running time: 104 min. Language: Korean Subtitle: English |
From writer/director Choi Jin Won (co-director of 1999's Whispering Corridors follow-up Memento Mori) comes Mr. Socrates, an action-packed tale that's already earned comparisons with such hit movies as Infernal Affairs and Old Boy!
One fateful day, Dong Hyuk finds himself suddenly abducted by a mysterious group of gangsters. He begins to undergo a grueling sort of training. But why? Whatever the reason, Dong Hyuk does his best to escape from their clutches, but each time, the training is harder and more demanding than the last.
Would you believe that the gang is doing it so he can pass the police qualification exams? That's the premise behind this twisty crime drama in which a good-for-nothing young punk has to become a homicide detective, all thanks to a notorious crime ring's secret connections! Mr. Socrates looks to be a gritty action picture about a decidedly different kind of undercover agent!
