It wouldn’t be wrong to describe the new K-action thriller Kill Boksoon as a kind of Kill Bill meets John Wick, although the South Korean production has its own unique twist. With this story of a single mother trying to leave behind her profession as a contract killer only to find herself hunted down by an assassin organisation, director Byun Sung-hyun fuses East and West in a stylised and fast-paced action film.
Netflix’s Kill Boksoon stars Jeon Do-yeon as a John Wick-style contract killer balancing the demands of her career with being a single parent. It’s streaming on Netflix now.
Quentin Dupieux's absurdist French action-comedy “Smoking Causes Coughing” on VOD; plus the "John Wick"-style Korean thriller "Kill Bonsoon" on Netflix.
