Mysterious acting

Film Confession involves Korean actors and actresses who are quite experienced in acting. Starting from So Ji-sub , who has starred in various popular South Korean shows, to Kim Yun-jin, who has been involved in a Hollywood production series, namely Lost . Both of them managed to provide a conversation scene that felt very intense.

However, not only Ji-sub and Yun-jin managed to look stunning in this film, but all of them. Each player manages to give a mysterious performance that makes the audience always feel suspicious of them.

Nana “After School” who plays a female supporting role in this film also managed to steal attention through her stunning acting performance. This film also indirectly shows Nana’s acting range , which turns out to be very broad. In fact, compared to other actors in this film, Nana has less experience in acting.

A less ‘angry’ ending

Confession has succeeded in building its conflict very neatly through all kinds of plot twists . This also makes the audience also annoyed when they find out who the real killer is, so they want him to get a proper response. However, this film is somewhat less successful in providing the ‘angry’ ending.

Buma feels that this film ends just like that, and does not give the audience satisfaction with the fate of the antagonist. This ending also makes all the conflicts that have been tensely built from the start so that it doesn’t feel like a climax at its peak. However, apart from that, you will still be able to enjoy this film as a whole.

In conclusion , Confession is a film full of surprising surprises and is perfect for those of you who like to watch shows with multiple plot twists . If you are interested, you can watch this film in a number of Indonesian cinemas starting November 2, 2022.
