    Excellent
    Watched on a whim without expectations and was thoroughly impressed.

    Takes you back to the days of the classic early 2000s Korean crime/action genre. If you enjoyed "A bittersweet life", "The man from nowhere", "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance" or even the much grittier "Old Boy" then you will enjoy this film like I did.

    Convincing world building, a brilliant cast mixed with stylish action scenes and a dash of humor/heartache.

    Made me sign in to this IMDB account of which I haven't touched in 9 years to leave a positive review to try and right the injustice of the current 6.8 rating.

    Worthy of your time.
