If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I should admit that my love is going deeper n greater for South Korean films these days since years back I came across them where they not only enchanted me with their eyeing visuals & mind bending stories but also made me realize that they will surpass Hollywood also one day (no, Bollywood doesn't come near anywhere). Today by watching montage, I understood that they can bring old tale of child kidnapping and detective remorse of unsolved case out in a totally new form where questions n plot twists would keep defining the story n actions of characters. Their unstoppable telling can only fail if everything is going haywire but succeeds if kept answering the questions that come up in the viewers' hearts. Well, I recommend you worth having a look if fast telling n revival of clichéd tales brings interest on your face.

Another nail biting thriller from Korean movie makers I guarantee you that it will keep you edge of the seat thriller. It is one of the greatest script and it was well written with an outstanding screenplay. You might have seen more kidnapping movies but am sure that it will stands tall above all because the depth of the story. I must say about that lead cast everyone done their part very well. Korean's background always top notch so does this..!! At the end I was shed a tears and share deep feeling with main character when she hugged the tree and call her daughter's name some movies very rare like this you shouldn't miss it.

This is my first review after rating thousands of movies. I'm very found of Korean movies after watching Oldboy several years ago. However, this is not a mainstream Korean movie, at least not in countries like Greece. Mont-ta-joo is a surprise for me since it is not as popular as other Korean movies (oldboy, memories of a murder, madeo etc.) but it is a great movie! The plot of the movie is ingenious with several upsets and with great acting (and not overacting). During the whole movie I could not take my eyes from the TV, trying to realize who could the kidnapper be. This is not just another kidnapping movie; it presents the drama of the victim and her agony, while it reveals slowly evidence about the conclusion of the case keeping tension at high levels during the whole movie. It also presents the investigators of the case as real people making mistakes and being affected by the victims.

If you have seen a lot of kidnapping movies (The Man from Nowhere, Mercy, Taken), Montage is just about the same.BUT, the story is well-presented and answers all the questions. It kind of refreshing to have such a clear ending.The story tells us how a mother of a lost child is dealing with her lost and never lose hope to look for justice. And also the detective who's having a hard time accepting the fact that the criminal slipped of his hand.Eom Jeong-hwa and Kim Sang-kyung performance were unquestionably good. Eom had played the same role before and so did Kim.Overall, I give a 9 because it's been a while since I saw a kidnapping movie and I'm glad that it doesn't make me stop midway and start thinking "Where have I seen this before?".Totally worth your time.
