A few good Korean actors in a bad movie. Movie used voice dubbing rather than subtitles and something always gets lost in the translation.I didn’t even finish watching the movie as I totally lost interest in it at the half way point. Several good actors but a not good movie. Wasted my money on this one.

Hwang Jung-min is wonderful, as usual. Just great. The supporting cast is delightful. Yoo Ah-in is passable, but no more than that. What I am finding in Ryoo Seung-won's films, of late, is a narrative disregard for women, a blithe acceptance of violence against women, and generally excessive amounts of physical pain and degradation. (More can sometimes be said, more poignantly, with less.) Granted, the fight scenes are extraordinarily well-choreographed and visually-attuned, but the final showdown is painful to watch. Beneath Hwang Jung-min's and others' stellar acting and the fighting lies...not a lot. The plot is really pretty sparse and the script leaves many unanswered questions (along the lines of retribution, for instance, or whether particular characters died or not).That Yoo Ah-in's character is drug-addicted and -addled becomes an excuse for Ryoo Seung-won to never develop fuller reasons for the character's psychopathy, but not a reason to have the police target, say, a larger drug ring. A couple of snorts of cocaine, an acknowledgment that he isn't close with his relatives, and the blood starts flying. Generally, just weak writing. The violence perpetrated by Yoo Ah-in's character against women is also merely part of the set piece. At no point is the character indicted for his actions against his female counterparts; in no instance is he further condemned or does his pending punishment increase. True, Yoo Ah-in's character also assaults and maims male characters; these injustices inspire the ire of Hwang Jung-min's character, not the acts of violence against women.The final result is a movie that has some marvelous components, but due to the poor writing and misogynistic viewpoint of its screenwriter/director, the end product falls flat.

I didn't know how to classify this movie as it is funny yet serious and sad. It's got some crazy lines and yet dramatic. The fight scenes had some old style "OMG that guy must be injured" with some comic relief at the same time. Story is a very simple one but it will hold your interest. Yoo ah In just nails every character even if its a terrible character you'll end up love his acting! Fun watch!

We watch a lot of Korean movies and they always seem to find something new to add to make it interesting. The chase in the shipping container yard at the docks was excellent and from there on we were hooked. It does get a little slapstick at times but the humor works and this one was pretty entertaining beginning to end. If you like police drama, action and some mystery you shouldn’t be disappointed. The downside is that you have to use Closed Captions because there are no English sub-titles in the streaming version and, for the most part, they were pretty good.

I really like these South Korean movies, they're a great change of pace from the completely out of ideas, oh boy another Super-Hero movie Hollywood we're plagued with. This is another really good one, give it a watch you won't be disappointed! :D

what had me watch this film was Yoo Ah-In and Hwang Jung-Min, two polished and seasoned actors. you just know you're getting your moneys worth. The film was action packed and guest stars appeared here and there. It was fun.I suggest to catch You Ah-In in a very different role, watch The Throne and Hwang Jung-Min in Battership Island, then you get the range of their talents. Love Korean dramas and films.

Awesome action movie with humor in it, as I expect from many Korean movies. Amazing acting and performance by the whole cast. Just another great movie to add to the list. I really enjoyed this one and I'd definitely recommend. Its wonderful to see a lot of the same actors in multiple movies and they never disappoint. 5 stars easily. Check it out

Relentless underdog against corporate corruption comedy action detective thriller. This film has so much heart. Excellent acting and pacing. Can't get enough. I love it

Didn't play wasted money, if you live in the UK don't buy it even if you got a multi regional DVD player. I brought a player just for this film that does not play.

Didn’t play
