I won’t give away what’s revealed when the policeman tracks the monster into a forest, with the help of his charismatic sidekicks, an outlaw cousin (Zo In-sung) and a passionate, heavily armed deputy (Jung Ho-yeon from Squid Game). Nor will I comment on the bizarre cameo roles played by Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander. Suffice it to say that Na must be a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Cameron, because he has clearly been watching The Terminator, Predator, Aliens and Avatar. On the other hand, he has added his own sincere but raucous comic commentary on human frailty and prejudice. Along with all the action, there is some depth, intelligence and political conviction in Hope, too.
