My private ranking is 9 out of 10 stars. It was a typical gangster collection with medicine, weapons, and violence. However the love triangle was “atypical”. One of the simplest ways to clarify why I assumed “The Worst of Evil” deserved this ranking is to cite from an article by Joan MacDonald contributed to Forbes:
- “Sure, Gi-cheul would possibly make decisions which might be noble, and, sure, Jun-mo would possibly commit crimes for his undercover work, however The Worst of Evil isn’t just a narrative about two males. It’s story a few triangle wherein the 2 males in the end make selections that consider a 3rd pivotal determine.”
