Marc Z @TKDLife Aug 28, 2026 This is a surprisingly good crime drama and action movie handout a Korean Mobster whose life is forever changed when he kills a little girl as collateral damage in an assassination raid. He then is told to kill the girl's mother and he struggles with being able to execute on the plan. It is a well acted, well directed, and very engaging crime movie. Korean cinema is the best.

This wasn't nearly as tightly written as Jeong-beom Lee's hit The Man from Nowhere 2010, as it was riddled with convoluted scenes and plot holes. The entire almost two-hour runtime didn't flow smoothly, even with the somewhat decent pacing. There was much clarity missing in many scenes, of which some of those could've been omitted. The narrative wasn't as engaging as it should've been. There were also many shake-your-head moments that were either too overdramatic, and/or unbelievable nonsense. It did have amazing action and gore scenes, with enough blood to make even the audience slip on it. The casting and performances were decent - although some cliched. The cinematography and score were on point. Nevertheless, it's not as bad as the critics say, and it's a fun one-time watch. Just don't expect this to be as great as Lee's 2010 gem of a film.

There's a huge number of anonymous people swirling around the two central characters, many of them being brutally killed and you're never sure why.

But a movie's success shouldn't be measured by how much it earns. No Tears for the Dead is very effective when it comes to delivering what South Korean action is known for without forgetting about the emotional aspect without the need for romance.
