Have you ever watched a movie and halfway through you feel so emotional?
That's the way I felt while watching this movie titled: Confession.
It's a Korean movie that was directed by
Yoon Jong-Seok.
The sad look on the parents face while their child was brought out from the lake.
Story line
A CEO of a Tech company was the murder that killed some kids while driving in a lonely part.
They had an accident and instead of him to call the police to make a report he decided to hide the body since nobody witnessed the accident.
He had his mistress with him on that day and so he told her not to report to the police because he doesn't want to loss his reputation and his family.
He quickly drove the car to a nearby lake and as he was about to drown the car he hard a sound from the boot where the boy who was unconscious had already woken up, the boy pleaded with him to help save him and take him to to hospital. But he said it was too late to turn back and so he used one of the car tool to beat the boy to death while he drown the car.
His mistress was waiting for him at the accident spot when a man came close to offer help thinking she had issues with her car, he took the car to his house and fixed it. While he was fixing the car the wife called to ask if he had hear from the son and the father tried calling his line only for it to ring in the ladies pocket, that was when she realized she was at the boys parents house.
The case was reported to the police and investigation was carried out, because of wealth and connection justice was delayed. And so the parent of the victim decided to carry out the investigation and bring enough evidence to nail the CEO down.
The mother acted like the defence lawyer and got all the information she needed, and she was able to find out where he drown their child. It was really a hard one for her.
Conclusion: this movie is One of the most enthralling and riveting crime thrillers I've seen in recent years. I'll admit that I saw the plot twist from miles away but execution of the story was so absorbing and compelling that it puts me at the edge of my seat throughout its runtime. The "what-if" plotline and the exhilarating mind games between the lawyer and the accused was written very neatly together.
The ending was a bit rushed but all in all, this ends up being a nice little gem that's worth checking out.
