Pluto (2012)
Written & directed
by Shin Su-won this film stars Lee David, Sung Joon, Kim Kkot-bi and
Jo Sung-ha. A transfer student at a highly competitive academic
school in South Korea is suspected of the murder of one of his
classmates.
Taking this issues of
pressure on students, bullying and elitism in South Korea this Su-won
spins out an dark thriller. Initially the non-linear nature of the
film made things a little confusing but once the story gets going the
plot twists and turns nicely. There are some decent performances but
the script is the clear highlight here.
4/5
