Laugh-out-loud Funny
This is the funniest movie that I have seen in a while. The humor in Korean productions usually does not appeal to me, but this time I laughed from start to finish. Extreme Job is a worthy representative of its genre.
The story revolves around four disaster detectives and their chief, Go Sang Gi, who, despite having been in the force for twenty years, has still not been promoted to Captain. The squad is so notorious for their incompetence that other detectives are hesitant to entrust cases to them, so when Go Sang Gi's friend Chief Choi of the organized crime division asks him to take on an important case for him, Go and his four subordinates seize the opportunity to prove that they are capable and worthy of promotion. Going undercover as chicken men, though, they get more than they have been prepared for as their restaurant becomes incredibly successful.
This premise is great comedy material, and both the script and the actors deliver on it. There is not one weak performance in this movie. Everyone is hilarious. Of course, the five main actors stand out with their brilliant comedic timing and chemistry.
The story might not be unique, but it is so well-written that it entertains and even surprises. The high-quality production and the OSTs, which fit their scenes well, make watching it even more enjoyable.
Overall, if you are in the mood for a comedy, this movie is a great choice.
