‘Hopeless’ Review: Kim Chang-hoon’s Feature Debut Is High On The Brutality But Lacks Depth To Be Something More – Cannes Film Festival
Written and directed by Kim Chang-hoon, his debut feature Hopeless is marked by a morose atmospheric tone that forces the audience to be spectators in the dismal lives of others. Despite the story being ripe with promise, its progress is hampered by an overlong runtime, shoddy editing, and its inability to tap into any other feelings besides discontent. The film stars Hong Xa-bin, Song Joong-Ki, Kim Hyoung-seo.
