Yoon Sung-hyun's TIME TO HUNT is visually and conceptually such a cool movie but while watching i kept thinking about how the movie could have been much better. It's lengthy, pacing was off and the movie lacks any sort of momentum or energy. Despite that, i liked the overall world building and atmosphere. The cat & mouse game worked well in building up the tension. Worth seeing, just keep expectations in check.

John wick but from the perspective of his victims, the boogeyman in a dystopian setting. Thrilling, oozing with coolness -- crisp, clean headshot in movie form. It's definitely not perfect and longer than necessary, but for me, anything other than five stars just feels wrong. Everything clicks, the soundtrack is delicious, and the weapon handling by the characters in this is just [chef's kiss]. Possible sequel incoming.

A surprising film that does a great job balancing the heist subgenre with an often than not suspense that reminiscent in many ways to the work of Michael Mann (especially Collateral) and Stefano Sollima - it tells the story of a group of friends and former thieves in a dystopian South Korean who are brought back into the crime world when a recently released mate talks them into stealing an underground illegal casino and use the money to build themselves a better life. Sadly, things don't go as plan in the worst way possible.
There's really so much I loved in this movie, from its cinematography and camera work, oozing with style and so much vibrancy that enhances the story…

Time to Hunt is like 3 or 4 movies at once. It starts off focused on a near-future dystopia where Korea faces such a bad recession that money is literally scarce. This crime-riddled Korea could represent a worry about the state of young people in the country. South Korea has dealt with authoritarianism and bad recessions in the past so this future isn't complete fantasy. The filmmaking in the opening act has throbbing music beats play over gangsta cinematography. The world is dilapidated and the lifestyles unfulfilling. Yet pretty quickly this dystopia just becomes a flavour and ends up entirely irrelevant to the story before even the midway point. Instead we get a crime film, a tense thriller, and an…

If this movie was trimmed down to around 90 minutes, then it could easily have been so much better - because there's a whole lot to admire about how tense the action scenes are.
As is, Time to Hunt is a bit of a mess, maybe too many movies all at once - but it's still entertaining nonetheless.

Would have been a stronger four-stars if it was 15 or 20 minutes shorter and didn’t end on a weak sequel hook. But a drawn-out slump of an ending doesn’t diminish the preceding two hours of action, suspense, and brotherhood.
Time To Hunt has an exceedingly simple set-up. In a near-future economically-collapsing Korea, four young robbers decide to hit a gang-run gambling den as their final heist. As is often the case with “one last heist”, things go horribly wrong and the friends find themselves pursued by a ruthless hitman. All this initially unfolds as a dramatic slow-burn, carried by the chemistry of the outlaw brothers and the atmosphere of its low-key cyberpunk slum. The friends exude a relatable naive innocence;…
