    It’s not that I expected much from the 500th (maybe this year) Korean action movie about hired killers, but this one turned out really bad even for this overused genre. Everything is formulaic: a plot that’s been seen a hundred times, the fragility of the elderly main character, which could have been a gimmick if it hadn’t been switched on and off when necessary, even the cliched waltzes in the soundtrack for Korean cinema were annoying… When the villain’s story is revealed, you’ll laugh at the cringe with his ridiculous motivation. It’s not even schiz, it’s fucking nuts. And most importantly, the fights are extremely dull, staged without the slightest attempt to show imagination – not a single one will be remembered.

    The main association for comparison is "Kill Poxun", which "The Old Woman" is very, very similar to, but at least twice as bad in everything. Accordingly, we also divide the rating by two.
