Project Silence movie review
Film: Project Silence (Original title ‘Talchul: Project Silence’)
Cast: Lee Sun-kyun, Ju Ji-hoon, Kim Hee-won
Director: Tae-gon Kim
Rating: 2.5/5
Runtime: 101 min
‘Parasite’ star Lee Sun-kyun’s posthumous release, ‘Project Silence’ has an intriguing premise. A few random strangers get trapped in a fog-enshrouded bridge leading to the airport after a multiple-vehicle pile-up caused by a reckless sports car driver, unleashes ferocious unknown beasts. But the formulaic plot, paper-thin characters and B movie treatment hampers the enjoyment.
Cha Jung-Won (Lee Sun-Kyun), a recent widower who’s been assisting Jung Hyun-Baek (Kim Tae-Woo) to win the upcoming election and the former’s rebellious daughter, Cha Kyung-Min (Kim Su-An) who is on her way to study abroad are two of the many people caught up in the melee. A military vehicle transporting a pack of experimental dogs codenamed “Echoes”, controlled by researcher, Dr Yang (Kim Hee-Won) are also part of the pile-up. A gas station attendant and tow truck driver Jo Park (Ju Ji-Hoon), his lapdog, Jodie, pro golfer Yoo-Ra (Park Ju-Hyun), her manager-sister Mi-Ran (Park Hee-Von) and an elderly couple played by Moon Sung-Keun and Ye Soo-Jung are also part of the ensuing drama.
