I mean, having Min Ki as a killer? Why make crime look hot?

The very start doesn't look promising, but as soon as the movie continues to evolve it somehow sucks you in. It is a very balanced movie - it has humor but at the same time it has a very serious and sad topic. It is very ''Korean'' - so, it shows the reality of life. I noticed them portraying lots of it, thus I really prefer them over western ones.

Back to the movie - the start is a bit boring (at least for me), but as it evolves it becomes interesting. The plot is very easy to follow, nothing is secretive. It's easy to watch, if you can take lots of blood and gore. Acting - is amazing.

Even though, I wouldn't watch this movie again. I think once was enough. It is not bad, but I definitely watched better ones.

Still I don't regret spending time watching it at all.

This film might bring you to tears, when you find out what's the actual message.

As a Park Hae Joon fan I must say, this actor sure brings his best to the screens.

I wish this movie wasn't so underrated. I think it deserves far more recognition than it has.

The story is easy to follow, it has an insane amount of realism and to myself it gave plenty of material to overthink about it afterwards. I think plenty is to be learned from this masterpiece as it shows how regret can shape out a person - or how missed opportunities ruin people and why you sometimes must listen to others instead of being stubborn. - It can ruin your life. So a simple mistake.

I also think that this movie brutally shows the truth behind success and also the truth behind schooling system in Asian countries not just South Korea. So - all the violence presented and put onto children in schools (because Asians are kind of obsessed with good grades and almost always put school before children's emotional needs).

I wish many people would watch this film as it has all of it. Cinematic effect, realism and overall a simple to follow and heartbreaking story. Not to mention good acting and casting.

As a fan of Park Hae Joon (the reason why I wanted to watch the movie in the first place) this movie definitely shows what a good actor he really is.

The plot is insanely interesting, there is constant action, a lot of gory and R-rated things, which don't bother me at all. I was born for action and this movie surely, gave it to me in the best aspect of it.
Of course the other actors did it great - Joo Hyuk, definitely did his job well (he got himself a new fan), as much as Hae Joon - even though this is not his first (the bad guy) role (see Doctor Stranger), same goes for Joon Yeol, who I like more and more with each role.

I would mark this as one of the best movies I have ever watched (nationwide) as this movie really shows, how good Korean movies can be (even though it's a remake).

If you love action, crime and investigation tangling with insanity - watch this movie and make sure to grab a lot of popcorn!
