It assumes you never had one if the first place. However the fact that they then then travel unhindered to Tokyo in Japan, Incheon and Jeju Island in Korea, and Bangkok in Thailand, doesn’t just demand that you leave you brain at the door. This might be 1% plausible if they remain in Hong Kong. However not once do they ever run into any cops or law enforcement during the whole run-time. As they’re witnessed with the informant, the pair end up as suspects behind the bombings. Identifying that it’s a bomb, instead of attempting to dispose of it, they simply leave it in the room and calmly vacate the hotel, leaving it to go off and wipe out who knows how many innocent lives. At one point Min-ho and Chung check into a hotel room with the informant, and find a cake waiting for them on the table. Illogical decision making and incoherent story telling are the orders of the day, built around a script that was probably written on the back of a coaster by a chimp.
And the ridiculously low level of talent tasked with making it. The type of bad movie ear marked by the ridiculously high budget that’s been thrown at it. However this has more to do with it having a marginally shorter run time than anything related to the move itself. Bounty Hunters is the kind of bad movie that only China seems capable of making. It may not reach the towering badness of Switch (and none of the actors have apologised yet for appearing in it). That it’s the last line which represents the tone of Bounty Hunters more than anything else written. If that last line seems a little out of place compared to the rest of the plot description. Oh, and their gay butler played by Fan Siu-Wong. They end up in the cross-hairs of a pair of female bounty hunters, played by Tiffany Tang and Karena Ng. However when things go wrong and the informant is compromised. The pair are hired to protect an informant, who has information on a terrorist responsible for blowing up hotels across Asia. They were dismissed, and now run their own agency to provide their services to those who need protection. Both used to be agents for Interpol, but due to the usual story of a mission gone wrong. However his previous movie role, as the lead in 2014’s Gangnam Blues, proved him to be more than just screen candy, with a convincingly gritty performance that also allowed him to show off his action chops.Īs mentioned Min-ho is paired with Wallace Chung, and in Bounty Hunters they play a pair of slacker bodyguards.
Which has resulted in him having a huge fan-base not only locally, but also in China.

And in most of his career has arguably been cast in many a Korean TV drama because of them. Lee Min-ho also coming on-board as co-lead alongside Chinese actor Wallace Chung. Tae-ra isn’t the only Korean influence in Bounty Hunters though. But his background does make him an obvious choice to helm a globe-trotting action adventure. The director behind such middle-of-the-road Korean action comedies like My Girlfriend is an Agent and Runway Cop. Tae-ra may not be a hot ticket to success. And this time they’ve called in some help to back them up.īounty Hunters (Tho San Tien Thuong) is produced by Hong Kong based Raymond Wong, and perhaps sensing that leaving such a blockbuster in local hands could result in something that resembles a sequel to Switch, the directorial reigns have been given to Korean Shin Tae-ra. In 2016 China continued its mission to create a watchable Hollywood style action blockbuster.
