‘A Killer Paradox’ review: retribution rules in this anti-hero tale
14.02.2024 - 08:09 / nme.com
A Killer Paradox’s Lee Tang (played by Choi Woo-shik) is an average university student. He spends his free time watching YouTube travel vlogs, dreaming of leaving his boring hometown and fantasising about heading off on a working holiday.
He’s unmotivated in class and is unperturbed at the idea of missing his exams – he can always retake them in the summer. Outside of class, he works in a convenience store, where he’s nagged over his punctuality by co-workers and, on the night shift, has to deal with drunk customers ordering him about.One night, after cleaning up after a drunk old man and his friend, the student heads home and finds the intoxicated shopper passed out on the side of a backstreet.
The next block over, he encounters the man’s companion, who is initially nonplussed by Tang’s urges to help his mate, but soon becomes annoyed and aggressive. Rather than leave him to his ranting, Tang grabs the hammer he’s borrowed from the convenience store from his bag and commits a very out-of-character murder.Back home, he’s wracked with guilt and considers turning himself in and even taking his own life.
But then, a news bulletin gives him some relief – his victim was actually a serial killer who’d been evading police. Perhaps, in some twisted way, Tang’s actions have served justice? That might help him live with himself more comfortably, were it not for a witness coming forward and blackmailing him or the suspicious interrogations of determined detective Jang Nan-gam (Son Suk-ku).A cat-and-mouse game follows between Tang and Nan-gam, as the urge to kill keeps coming and the obstacles to getting off scot-free pile up.

‘Spaceman’ Review: Adam Sandler Fails To Style Out This Dour Sci-Fi – Berlin Film Festival
For a time, it seemed like an auteur war was about to break out over Adam Sandler, with some of America’s most revered directors vying to find the right role for the comedian. It was rumored, but never confirmed, that Quentin Tarantino imagined him a key role while writing Inglourious Basterds, although this might have been wishful thinking from critics who saw the talented Sandler heading in the same direction as John Travolta until Pulp Fiction saved him from a lifetime of Look Who’s Talking movies. In the end, Paul Thomas Anderson got there first, with Punch Drunk Love (2002), although the glow of a bona fide arthouse hit didn’t last long, and Jack and Jill still happened less than ten years later.
