This post maybe too personal from my excitement!^^
Even Confession of Murder can't be in theater near my house but when it landed into " Netflix "
One of the bigest Movie watching online in USA so it can't be better than that.
As I am a member like many American families. This news is very exciting news for me
to be able to watch this movie with my family. I watched a little bit ( my x times^^ )
and the pictures very sharp & clear as a crystal.
I hope one day " Scent " can make its way to Netflix as well
This is a picture in the front page.
Too bad they didn't show Park Si Hoo's picture at all.

Comments from American viewers
'Confession' opens with some confusing and unnecessary flashback flim-flammery, showing Lieutenant Choi (Jung Jae-young) chasing a serial killer, whose 11th victim might be Choi's wife. The killer escapes, leaving Choi with a scarring knife wound. We move on 15 years, when we're told that the statute of limitations has expired for the killings. Allowing Lee Doo-seok's (Park Si-hoo) to step forward with a book called "I am the Murderer." The public's reaction to the book is the centerpiece of the film - Choi expressing doubts as to Lee Doo-seok's (Park Si-hoo) claims but unable to refute the level of detail in the text, and the ridiculous but totally believable cult of obsession that instantly springs up around Lee, since he turns out to be quite the handsome and charming young chap. Some slightly goofy bits with a group of Doo-seok's victims' survivors constantly planning attacks against the supposed murderer muddle with the tone, as does a ridiculous car chase sequence... though god damn is that sequence pretty awesome. There's also some odd CGI that undermines the film's slickness, and I was constantly curious why no one mentioned how young Doo-seok looked. But Jung Jae-young gives Choi a very believably brittle, grudging acceptance of his role, and Lee is pitch-perfect creepy charm. It essentially boils down to a cat and mouse - did he do it or didn't he? And we're purposefully kept in the dark as to Choi's real feelings on the matter, lending the proceedings a building tension. The end has some stunning moments but strains the suspension of disbelief in order to escalate things to a final confrontation. The high-octane moments look awesome but are at odds with the majority of 'Confession,' which is a more sober observation of publicity and obsession than it initially seems.

Oh my! Outstanding, this film is fantastic. From director to casting. I don't know how one review said there was comedy, far from it. Better or almost, either or, a James Bond flick. Yes the car chasing was awesome, beats Will Smith I Robot or close enough, but more so. Very surprising scene towards the end. I must admit it beats a lot of American Movies. I also recommend I see the Devil, I watched that twice it too is fast paced as is this film. I highly recommend this film and congratulate Jeong Byeong-gil for his direction and of casting of the cast.

love this movie! As an avid viewer of Korean dramas and movies, I have come to appreciate the details in the story lines. So yes, many of the writers will start from a beginning and not just JUMP into the action. It makes me have a better sense of the characters and feel more emotions--good, bad, angry, inspired, etc., Confessions of Murder is probably the most original movie that I have seen dealing with murder. It is really good and keeps you interested until the end. Wow and kudos for that added twist. I never saw that coming. As well, as one reviewer implied, the car scenes were excellent. All, and you cannot beat that family. They do not mess around. I will not tell the story. You just have to watch it for yourself.

This is the best thriller, police drama, chase movie, serial killer flick you will see this year. A really good movie. It is action packed, smart and well acted. These Koreans have it all over Hollywood when it comes to these kinds of films. The best foreign film I've seen since I saw the Devil. Filmoreq.

If you speak Korean, this might be a good movie. However, the English subtitles are missing from entire scenes, especially during the last 20 minutes of the movie when there are a series of twists that are impossible to understand when you can't tell what anyone is saying because there are no English subtitles.
