The Chaser is so dark but so compelling. Love movies with a reluctant protagonist.

It's a thriller than nails its emotional moments. Hard to find those.

Saw The Chaser at the Cinema, still remember the poster in the lobby saying “being remade by the producers of The Departed”.

Lol. I didn't even know they're gonna remake it. Probably gonna suck like the Old Boy remake.

Cool username btw.

That was over 15 years ago, doubt there’ll be a remake now. Just makes me laugh how eager they were to slap that quote on the poster trying to cash in on the success of Infernal Affairs/The Departed and it never fucking happened. Old Boy remake was soooo bad, unwatchable bad, Charltoy Copley doing that weird whiny voice.

Cheers for the compliment, it’s a combination of my two favourite things,Delroy Lindo & Delboy Trotter. And also Snake Plissken username was taken.
