Look, if you're into Korean noir and can stomach serious violence, My Name is genuinely excellent—100% on Rotten Tomatoes isn't a fluke. The lead performance is magnetic, the action choreography is visceral, and the tension never lets up.
But this is emphatically not family viewing. We're talking graphic stabbing and shooting in every episode, rape themes, drug trafficking as a central plot point, and a relentlessly dark tone. Even for older teens who've seen plenty of action movies, this operates at a different intensity level.
For the Screenwise scoring: it's well-crafted adult entertainment that earns its critical acclaim, but it's so narrowly targeted and so far from kid-appropriate that it can't score high on a family media rubric. If you're looking for something to watch after the kids are asleep and you want a propulsive crime thriller, go for it. Otherwise, this one stays off the family queue entirely.
