Movie Description
A box-office smash in its native South Korea, TELL ME SOMETHING is a grisly crime thriller and a sly satire of the casually inept South Korean Police. Han Suk-kyu stars as Lieutenant Cho, a down and almost out cop under investigation for corruption and haunted by the death of his mother. Put in charge of the investigation of a series of gruesome murders in which skillfully dismembered corpses are being found in garbage bags around Seoul, Cho's detective work quickly leads him to an icy but beautiful woman named Suyeon Chae who has been involved with each of the victims. Carefully guarding her memories and, most probably, information crucial to identifying the killer, Suyeon both charms and infuriates the weary Lieutenant Cho.
Atmospheric, graphically violent, and darkly humorous, TELL ME SOMETHING is a riveting thriller in the vein of David Fincher's SEVEN. This film, along with 2000's CHUNHYANG, LIES, and NOWHERE TO HIDE, marks the international resurgence of South Korean cinema and proves that its country's filmmakers are as relevant and accomplished as their more established counterparts around the globe.

"[T]here's an atmosphere of paranoia and foreboding which you feel in the pit of your stomach. Intense."
Uncut - Chris Roberts (10/01/2005)
"Kim Sung-Bok's stylish cinematography ensures a suitably noir look..."
