The two main characters have good acting skills, but the storyline is boring.

I was looking forward to the movie because of Gong Yoo but I stayed for both him and Park Bo Gum. This is the first time I've seen Park Bo Gum's acting skills and I must say I really liked him and the way he portrays so much with such minimal expressions. The problem here is not the story line, but the way the film has been crafted, it is somehow a bit too rushed, and doesn't build up the way it could have. It needed some more depth and I can't really put my finger on it, but something is missing. I did like the film but I will not be seeing it again but I wish I could give it more stars just for Park Bo Gum, who is definitely the main star for me here. Gong Yoo is a great actor but the film didn't really give him a chance to develop his character or maybe there's just not enough there for him to portray. I wish the film was made better. I want to give it a 6.5.

...but somehow the script is not the best, and i think with the two lead actors they could've done so much more and better (because they are both great), but it stays a bit on the surface over all. Too bad!

As another reviewer stated, it's not bad to watch once. It has some elements that make it engaging, like some very well done CGI (particularly the super-power scenes) and an emotional score. Gong Yoo and Park Bo Gum both nail their roles, but the plot was lacking, and it failed to connect on an emotional level. The premise was interesting, but ultimately I was left feeling like what exactly was the point of the movie. I think the overall message of what it means to be human is decent, but I've seen it done better. I felt this was somewhat of a disappointment, as it had all the right elements but they somehow failed to impress. I think it was a decent watch but I wouldn't recommend it unless you are a huge fan of the lead actors and have nothing else to watch.

Despite of two of well known South Korea actor and one of my Favorites actor Goong Yoo teamed up with young talented actor Park Bo Gum, this movie kinda wasted their talent, if is not because their acting and lets put other unknown actor in it, this movie sadly will fail horribly, even Goong Yo and Park Bo Gum can't save this movie with their performance, feel like the story don't know where to go, if i can call it as food, i call it as bland taste with great garnish, but you don't want taste it again because that bland taste despite beautiful garnish on top of the food, i almost forget as soon i walk away from cinema, like i watch thousand like this, but nothing new or come of as special from it, eventually there is not enough depth back-story that make me wanna root and feel empathy for main character, everything feel rushed and director doesn't know what their aim for, i feel it kinda try hard to questioning about life and death philosophy, but c'mon, can we doing better than Seo Book look like he just wanna show up his super power and another half between it just some talk about life and death crisis with Ki Heon, i give 2 star for story and add bonuses 3 star because i like Goong Yoo and Park Bo Gum, but now i feel pity for them because they even can't maximize their potential of great performance because bad script and mediocre dialogue inside the movie that make you wondering why you can't even remember just one meaningful dialog from this movie, but yeah, once again this what i call as bland movie, just watch this if sure you never witnessed any other Sci-Fi movie in your lifetime.
