Police recruit an investigation team to hunt down escaped prisoners from an overturned transport vehicle.

Even though The Bad Guys: Reign of Chaos bills itself as a movie about hardcore violence at heart the story's a fairly straightforward investigative mystery.

[The Bad Guys is] a fun film for audiences looking for a respite from more serious dramas, or to get riled up with anti-Japanese sentiment.

I'm a huge fan of these actors. I highly recommend this great movie with lots of action.

I'm a big fan of Ma Dong-Seok and he has some good moments here, but this film misses the mark. It's needlessly complicated, jam packed with superfluous characters for a story that ultimately has a rather simple resolution. The film makers should have spent more time on the story instead of the slick production.
