Critic Reviews

Derek Elley

The most emotionally satisfying pic to date by Korean iconoclast Kim Ki-duk. Read full review

Scott Tobias

The film works best as a passionate tale of obsessive love, with two people brought together under harrowing circumstances. Read full review

Sean Axmaker

Uncompromising, unpleasant and emotionally brutal, this twisted love story of emotional bondage is oddly compelling. Read full review

Frank Scheck

The filmmaker's attempt to explore the outer boundaries of erotic and violent obsession are undone by the murkiness of the execution, and only the highly committed and forceful performances by the two leads give the aptly titled Bad Guy any distinction. Read full review

Hank Sartin

The audience is subjected to a series of emotional contortions, encouraged to experience them voyeuristically, and then scolded for doing so. The bathetic music Kim favors is profoundly at odds with his chilly attitude toward the characters. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

Really, who needs a bad guy who's this guilty about being bad? Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Becomes more and more confused, unpleasant and preposterous. Read full review
