I usually don't feel like watching Korean movies but when I do - I do have weird reasons. I decided to watch this movie for a dumb reason namely the hottie Jeon Yeo Bin. The movie in itself is NOT for children or for the squeamish. The story has two people crossing paths namely Park Tae Go (Um Tae Go) and Jae Yeon (Jeon Yeo Bin) in a series of conspiracies. One is a guy who's lost his sister and niece after crossing the gangsters. Meanwhile, Jae Yeon is a terminally ill woman who lost her will to live, she also lost a lot of her loved ones then she becomes so badass later in the movie.
Now, we've got actor Cha Seung Won playing the main antagonist, Executive Ma. I do love just how Seung Won's over-the-top performance does what it does. Seung Won was a protagonist in You're All Surrounded and was seemingly antagonistic in Korean Odyssey. In here, it was fun to see him as the main antagonist and a very ruthless one at that. The guy's involvement in the chaos in the show and how he really messed everything up. He's really one of the best movie villains ever since how it becomes so satisfying to see him getting a brutal death eventually.
The whole movie in itself can be rather slow for me. There are some dialogues about the characters and what happened. There are some good action scenes and some scenes you'd like to skip if you're squeamish. Fortunately, there aren't those prolonged torture scenes like in the movie Killers (2014) which I couldn't watch even for Rin Takanashi's role. Though, there's still generous amounts of blood every now and then.
For me, it's not much special TBH. Though, if you want a different experience then check it out. Maybe, it's because I'm more used to the one hour and a half movie that tries to get the plot pacing better. In this case, some slowdown can be annoying but enjoyable as a dowside. Though, it's better to check it out yourself and give your opinion on it. Just remember to DEFEND your opinion with the facts if you choose to disagree with me.
