The Rapid opening montage identifies Kang Min-ho (Ahn), a disgraced, corrupt cop, and his straight-laced son, Kang Yeong-jun (Jo), who?s set to redeem his father?s misdeeds by being a better policeman than dad ever was. Eight years later, a sting at a Seoul amusement park ? impressively staged as a roller-coaster chase ? leads Yeong-jun to pursue a suspect south to the port city of Busan. The suspect proves elusive, but Yeong-jun discovers his long-missing father running the very police station the young detective must now commandeer. Script delivers ample opportunities for father and son to score emotional points, and both direction and performances are solid, but whole shebang has a brainstormed, paint-by-numbers feel. Technical package is top-notch.
