Spencer Daniels. Kim Byung-woo. CJ Entertainment. Take Point was released in on Friday, January 4, Limited release. Watch Now. Toggle navigation. Release Date: Friday, January 4, Limited. Runtime: 1 hr, 59 m. There's a real neo-noir edge to the movie.

The authorities are beyond corrupt; the plans break so rapidly in the face of events that there's no time to modify them, only react, and there are three directors of photography, each covering a different front with a moving camera, fit to drive the audience up the wall.
