![]() Midnight Runners' only issue is that the action doesn't really pick up until around the second half of the movie. I mean, ignoring a very real, serious issue just because protocol had to be followed? I was about to tear my hair out. Also, it was INFURIATING, and I do mean infuriating at one part. It balanced Ki Joon and Hee Yeol's light, easygoing antics with the gross (and tbh, kind of scary) villains. Midnight Runners was a great example of what a buddy-cop movie should be (though if you want a super serious police procedural, this isn't it). They played off of each other, and after hearing that they ad-libbed quite a bit during the movie I was sold - that friendship did not seem like acting at all. Ki Joon and Hee Yeol's brain-brawn dynamic made for a wild ride, and I can't think of anyone else that would have delivered like these two did. As reluctant police academy students, they were the best of bros and I was 100% here for it. ![]() Kang Ha Neul and Park Seo Joon just work SO WELL together. ![]() It didn't need to be hard to understand, all it had to do was make the viewer smile, laugh and maybe even forget about their troubles - and it got the job done. The plot wasn't the most original or complicated but it didn't matter. ![]() Rewatch Value 9.0 I haven't laughed this hard in quite a while.
