6/10
An entertaining movie for the entire family...
21 May 2023
When I sat down to watch the 2020 South Korean action comedy "Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP" (aka "Mr. Zoo: The Missing VIP"), I had actually never heard about it. I happened to have the opportunity to sit down and watch it, and with it being an Asian movie that I had not already seen, of course I found the time to do so.

Writer and director Tae-Yun Kim put together a script and storyline for the movie that was a mixture of "Dr. Dolittle" mixed with an agent movie, and it was actually a combination that proved to be rather enjoyable and entertaining. There was a good amount of laughs and comedy throughout the course of the movie, and the mixture of serious elements to the storyline worked out quite nicely.

"Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP" is a movie that appeals to viewers of all ages, because there literally is something in this movie for all ages to enjoy. And that was a great testimony to the writing and directing skills of Tae-Yun Kim.

The acting performances in "Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP", and leading actor Lee Sung-min (playing Joo Tae-Joo) carried the movie quite well with his performance. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but they put on good performances in bringing the movie and the characters to life on the screen.

Visually then "Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP" was adequate. The CGI effects were not spot on perfect, but they served their purposes and that added nicely to the overall enjoyment of the movie.

I was genuinely entertained throughout the course of the 114 minutes that the movie ran for. And if you enjoy Asian action comedies, then you should definitely check out "Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP" from writer and director Tae-Yun Kim.

My rating of "Miseuteo Ju: Sarajin VIP" lands on a six out of ten stars.
