The Piper (2015) | Korean

"Scores must be settled"

At first glance, i was shocked seeing this movie thinking its a complete story of my favorite comic Pied piper atleast at the start. But to my surprise it turned out to be one of best jaw dropping thriller cum revenge story with a deadly twist towards the end. Movie is so good that it keeps us engaged right from the start with its mesmerizing visuals supported by beautiful music especially when piper at play. Movie starts of at very good note making us feel like reading a comic book but doesn't stay that way for long .

Piper along with his young son finds shelter for a night stay in a isolated village where people are terrified and terrorized by deadly rodents. Piper agrees to solve their problem as a token for their love and hospitality & does it as  promised. But in a misunderstanding and a foul game played by village chief, piper gets suspected to be a spy and gets punished brutally by the villagers. What follows is redemption for their mistakes and how piper teaches them a great lesson for their sins forms rest of the story.

Story might sound simple but the making with such a style stands out unique. A simple story with a beautiful narration getting twisted to be deadly thriller film is no easy task. Second half of the film might be a bit graphic in nature and might not appeal for all audience. But besides that, the maker still manages to empathize the pain of a dejected father whose heart gets filled with vengeance for people being dis-grateful to him . Overall this is definitely one of very good thriller film not be missed.
