Mission: Cross 2024 Movie Review Trailer Poster

 Kang-moo (Hwang Jung-min) is a stay-at-home husband who cooks and cleans, while his wife Mi-seon (Yeom Jung-ah) is a veteran member of the crime squad team who was once a silver medalist in shooting at the Asian Games.


A kind-hearted man, Kang-moo helps Mi-seon by letting go of his past as a former agent and keeping it a secret, until he accidentally bumps into his former agent colleague Hee-joo (Jeon Hye-jin).

Director: Lee Myung Hoon
Writer: Lee Myung Hoon
Stars: Dawn Anderson, Kim Chan-Hyung, Yoon Dae-yeol

After the encounter, he often loses contact and leaves the house in disarray. Mi-seon decides to chase him down one day in retaliation, only to learn that Kang-moo and Hee-joo are involved in a big case as partners.


A couple with secret pasts and each accidentally discovering the other's identity is nothing new in action comedy movies. This somewhat “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”-like setup allows the audience to stay engaged with the plot even as it moves along quickly.


The strong point of this action comedy is that it follows the formula with several cliché moments (the couple’s witty banter during a shootout and a car chase involving large trucks), meaning laughs are guaranteed. Like a popcorn movie, the flow is smooth and natural in “Mission: Cross.”


What elevates the charm of this film is the strong presence of veteran actors Hwang and Yeom.


Unlike the strong characters Hwang has shown in “Narco-Saints” and “12.12: The Day,” Kang-moo in “Mission: Cross” is a comic relief character that audiences have been waiting for from Hwang. He proves that he can not only digest such a role, but also make it look special on screen.


Meanwhile, Mi-seon shows off an impeccable action sequence and Yeom, With his long arms and graceful movements, he performs acrobatic jumps and also fires weapons with skill. Considering that “Mission: Cross” is being released through Netflix, the film may also attract global audiences in Southeast Asia or Europe.
