This week, Capelight Pictures is releasing the Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD for The Roundup: Punishment (read our review), the fourth film in The Round Up franchise that started with 2017’s The Outlaws, 2022’s The Roundup and 2023’s The Roundup: No Way Out.
Directed by Heo Myung-Haeng (Badland Hunters), The Roundup: Punishment stars Don Lee (Unstoppable), Park Ji-Hwan (The Roundup: No Way Out), Lee Beom-Soo (The Roundup: No Way Out) and Lee Ji-Hoon (The Roundup: No Way Out) with the new cast additions Kim Moo-Yul (Ballerina) and Lee Dong-Hwi (Broker).
While investigating the operators of a drug trafficking app, Detective Ma (Lee) and his team discover a link between a murder case in the Philippines and an illegal online gambling organization. The organization’s leader IT genius Chang Dong-cheol, and his accomplice, ex-elite soldier Baek Chang-gi, are already preparing their next big move. To thwart their plans, Detective Ma expands the operation and forges and unusual alliance.

I hope Ma Dong-Seok enjoys making these films. If I were him, I feel like I’d be having a blast!
Just like what was mentioned in the review for Part 3, I hope Heo Myung-haeng turns the gear higher and raises the stakes. If Badland Hunters is any indication, maybe Dong-Seok will have more challenging opponents and be in more danger.
More more! He’s got the right path.
The outlaws will probably stay the best for me. Let’s hope for something a little different this time…
