Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Who'll love it: If you count yourself among anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and anyone who likes to be kept guessing, this one's for you. Plenty of moral grey areas to chew on. A good follow-up to Klute or Blue Velvet.
The mood: Tense, gritty.
The pace: Moves at a clip, at 2 hr 5 min.
What might put you off: It's in Korean, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

A successful lawyer who, in order to save her daughter, is pressured into defending the innocence of a man slated to receive the death penalty.
