TOMATOMETER
A scene on a train, in which the police stalk the rebels before a gun battle erupts, runs more than 20 minutes, all of them tense. A bomb-planting scene, set to Ravel’s 'Bolero,' is almost as taut.

A filmmaker as attuned to detail and process as a watchmaker, Kim Jee-woon allows the machinations to build up and play out in inexorable yet unpredictable fashion.
Los Angeles Times
Sep 22, 2016
Kim’s preference for exteriorizing all of his character’s suspicions and turmoil -- for making the internal into something more graphic by transferring its energy into bullets, wounds, and time bombs -- gives it a sensational, two-fisted flavor.-- Grade: B+

3 stars out of 4 -- THE AGE OF SHADOWS is about a man caught between country and duty; decency and obligation. It is about people in a time in which black and white lost their meaning, and everything blended to the gray of shadow.
