This priest, Father Ahn ( Ahn Sungki), happens to be searching for the Dark Bishop as well, and the two form an unlikely bond despite Yonghu’s reluctance to hear Father Ahn's blathering about how one can't hate without truly loving-a hard jab at Yonghu's lack of faith signaling that he'd once believed with his whole heart. When a puncture wound stigmata appears in his right hand with seemingly no diagnosis, Yonghu finds out it's a God-given weapon against evil when he unwittingly aids a priest in an exorcism gone awry.
#THE DIVINE FURY MOVIE#
This is the wildest Yonghu gets in a fight, however, and for the rest of the movie he seems to be inconvenienced at worst, which indicates that the overall premise of The Divine Fury sounds a little more badass on paper than in practice.
Granted, he does go overboard after seeing his opponent's full-back tattoo of Christ, but that's later revealed to be intervention by the Dark Bishop-the demon responsible for his father's death. This is initiated by a priest telling him that, if he prays hard while his father is hospitalized, then God will surely hear him-but Yonghu's prayers seem to go unheard when his father dies that night.Ĭut to 20 years later, and we can assume a traumatized and Godless Yonghu would be an absolute mad dog in the ring, but who can say for certain when there's one MMA fight in the movie. Writer and director Kim Joohwan takes this latter part pretty seriously, to a point that Yonghu's faith is a consistent topic throughout the movie. The story follows Yonghu ( Park Seojoon), an undefeated MMA fighter who's also actively rejected God ever since the tragic death of his father as a child. But for how strong it is conceptually, the execution leaves something to be desired. evil plot with a few good, clean action sequences. With that in mind, The Divine Fury delivers on the front of being a clear good vs. What I did not know is that’s it exactly, except in a “In the name of the Lord, I will end you” kind of way so this is a good time to mention that I'm not knowledgeable about the Catholic faith and I've never seen Constantine. This week I watched The Divine Fury because it was advertised to me as a movie about an MMA fighter with a demon hand-which, yeah, that sounds like something I can get into.
