Spiritwalker may have been an idea that was best left on the shelf. In book form, where there is considerably more scope to explain what is happening and why, this might have worked. As it stands in a substantially briefer, film form, its just confusing. The character constantly jumps from persona to persona, trying to find his way back to himself. To say this results in an abundance of cognitive dissonance in the poor viewer, is an understatement. You get your bearings with a character before he's suddenly, someone else. Quality of acting is predictably good, few South Korean films disappoint in this regard. Actions scenes are well done too, no complaints there. In summary, some concepts work, others don't. For me, at least, this is one of the don'ts......
68/100 A man, whose spirit is jumping around from one person to another every 12 hours, is trying to find out who he is, what's going on and how to save his girlfriend. Likable characters, good pacing and great action highlight this incredibly intriguing story that leaves one wondering what's going to happen next. It is a bit confusing at times, they did sort of lose me on a couple points, but once the reveal is made, things gelled together quite well and the John Wickish style climax was a real treat. Good exciting fun well worth a bag a popcorn and a hot dog. -- DrNostromo.com
