Back in the day, when Koreans knew how to create a good movie. For many years, Korean movies were probably the most exciting movies internationally. Or at least, amongst them. Last 8 years are not that good for Korean cinema. I hope they find again their groove.

This is a very good crime thriller movie. Sure it's flawed. With all due respect, Uhm Junghwa's acting is bad. And the story is too far fetched. But still this is exciting as hell, it doesn't drag for a second. There are some nice twists and turns, viewer cares for these characters and it's an intense experience for sure. Kim Sang-kyung and Hie-bong Jo are excellent. In general, this is a well acted and well directed movie. I liked also the comedy element, it blended perfectly with the dark tone of the movie.

Nothing else to say. Watch it if you are a fan of this genre. Not many good crime thriller movies recently.
