Featured review
Started off very strong through a series of slapstick scenes, but quickly loses steam as the story went on. A group of very likable cops with a great concept sounds like a combination that can do no wrong, but quite quickly you realize the film lacks memorable scenes and twists in the plot. The Chinese version of the film is stronger in both its cinematography and story that you feel the Korean version exists just to be there, but doesn't offer anything substantial. The bad guys are painfully one-dimensional and lacks personality. There are no doubt comedic moments sprinkled throughout, but there is not enough meat for the film to be remembered.

Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"Extreme Job," from South Korea, and "Lobster Cop," from China, share similar stories and tones as they are based on a script written by the South Korean writer Choong-Il Moon. The script won a contest held in South Korea in 2014 by the Korea Creative Content Agency. As part of their global marketing strategy, the agency formed partnerships with other countries such as China, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, which is why there's also Vietnamese version of Extreme Job, titled "Nghe Sieu De" or "Extremely Easy Job."
