‘Hope’ Review: Na Hong-jin’s Overlong Creature Feature is a Guns-Blazing Riot of Bawdy Humor, Bad CGI and Brilliant Action

Despite subpar creature effects and silly stabs at mythology, for about 70% of its hefty runtime, the Korean master's fourth film is among the best — and funniest — action movies you have ever seen.

For a decade, since 2016’s extraordinarily uncanny horror-hybrid “The Wailing,” fans of Korean director Na Hong-jin have been peering anxiously at the horizon awaiting his next uncategorizable genre mash-up. More recently, like a bumbling local police chief removing his mirrored aviators to squint at an unidentifiable what-the-hell-is-that wreaking havoc in the distance, we’ve tracked reports of his new project, which despite a high-profile international cast and the largest budget in Korean film history, remained until the last second shrouded in secrecy. Now that “Hope” is here — hilarious, unwieldy, overlong and featuring some of the most breathtakingly elegant action moviemaking of this or any year — one has to ask if anything could possibly have lived up to the anticipation.

Neon Debuts Official Teaser For Na Hong-Jin’s Buzzy Cannes Title ‘Hope’; Sets Fall Theatrical Release

On the heels of its in Competition debut at Cannes, where it received a seven-minute standing ovation, Neon has released the official teaser for Na Hong-jin‘s buzzy sci-fi title, Hope, which will bow in theaters this fall.

The just over minute-and-a-half first look previews a desolate, bloodied and disordered street, lined with wrecked cars and abandoned buildings. As the eerie, synth-forward and siren-infused score picks up, viewers get a glimpse at the aliens terrorizing a South Korean town.

‘Hope’ Unleashes a Bats— Crazy Korean Monster Movie on Cannes and Earns 6-Minute Standing Ovation

“Hope” — an extremely ambitious blockbuster hopeful about an alien invasion in a sleepy South Korean mountain town — jolted the Cannes Film Festival awake on Sunday night with a 6-minute ovation.

Directed by Na Hong-jin, the big-budget epic combined a gritty survival story and an original sci-fi mythology — no one quite knew what to expect from the title, which has domestic distribution through Neon.
