Watched this Korean film last night - was a superb little film it is, too.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0353969/

It covers a period twenty years ago when a serial keller was on the loose in Korea, and the attempts by the local underfunded and undertrained police force to solve the murders - it's powerful stuff, and in a few scenes very funny without taking away the seriousness of the film overall.
Highly recommended.

Could be worse. It could have been a serial Keillor, monologuing all over the place.

Yes, it's excellent. I'm about due for another watch, in fact! Glad you liked it, Mick.

The director, Bong Joon-ho, has a new film coming out next year called Mother, about a mother trying to clear her son of murder by tracking down the real killer.
