A self-proclaimed executioner assassinates on camera delinquents, on who, in his opinion, the state was way too indulgent. The brutal murderer gets viral and becomes a hero to everyone who falls for populist online influencers.
This doesn't make it any easier for Seo Do-cheol and his team of investigators: Who is a copycat here? And who the real, frighteningly cunning killer? Seo is assisted by newcomer Park Sun-woo. The hotshot quickly attracts attention with his effective martial arts skills – and a tendency towards excessive violence.
From the opening sequence to the showdown, I, THE EXECUTIONER sets an enormously fast pace and thrills us with uniquely staged over-the-top action scenes that are painful to watch. The ambiguous, twist-filled story raises important questions, while its black humor insertions allow us to take a quick breath – just before everything gets out of hand again.
