Synopsis
Amores perros-ish time distortion and bullet-speed pace of 33 Seconds inspire at once pleasure and suspense as any film toying with imposed time limit would. What is remarkable about 33, though, is its acupuncturist directorship ruthlessly penetrating the cores of wide specimens of people: Pregnant woman, stuttering actor, homeless person, blockhead hygienist, half-wit terrorist all plunged into the fate of '33 seconds.' Condensed in tragedy are love and hatred, crime and punishment, ecstasy and despair: All the mystery of humanity. (CHOI Eun young)
