If you haven’t watched this movie, then it should be available in one of the online streaming platforms. The film also stars Choi Woo-shik (who had roles in critically acclaimed films like Train to Busan and Parasite), Jo Min-su, Park Hee-soon, Go Min-si etc.Īs I said before, I really enjoyed this one and is giving it 4.5/5. The way she unleashes – wow – brings Goosebumps.

Kim Da-mi played the central character very well. You will most likely love the over the top action sequences (beautifully choreographed by martial arts directors Park Jung-ryul and Kim Jung-min) and overall performances by everyone. There is more than enough blood and gore to keep you satisfied. The story takes some startling twists and turns and takes you for jaw dropping ride.
#THE WITCH PART 1. THE SUBVERSION MOVIE#
The second half is where the movie goes from bonkers to bonkers. You have to keep watching for the second half of the movie. If you see just the first half, this movie will be clearly mistaken as a family drama (or maybe as a teen movie).

There isn’t much action in the first half. This movie was written and directed by Park Hoon-jung (I liked his earlier movie – New World, which was an excellent crime drama with an equally good story line). This is when her earlier life catches up with her. She does some magic tricks there to get into the finals. So she enters a televised music competition to get the prize money so that she could help her family out. Her parents are in bad health and are having financial problems. She was taken in by an old couple and she grows up to be a bright student seemingly without any knowledge of the things that have happened to her in the past. Released in 2018, it tells the story of a girl named Ja-yoon (played by Kim Da-mi) who had escaped from a government facility 10 years back. The title named “The Witch” is entirely misleading. First of all this is in no way a story about witches or witch craft. The Subversion (Manyeo) is a South Korean action sci-fi movie which I enjoyed very much.
