    Good thriller.. worth it

    Must be airing in Netflix. This Original better than remake. Solid script. See other side of Park Seo Joon... his acting. Hyun Joo and Ma Dong Seok too ... Captain Choi: It's easy to be kind, but hart to be fair...

    Good thriller but the ending can either make of break the movie for you

    This thriller is actually really interesting. It is rather exciting to see the main character prevent himself from being discovered by the rest of his team. This movie starts out strong and has a good pace throughout, with the final act containing most of the action. This movie does end in a twist, and depending on how you feel, you can either go with it or completely black out. The twist is rather over the top, but it does make sense. The only issue I have is that during the final few minutes, this movie becomes a little bit too melodramatic, with characters crying, and the music becoming very sentimental and over-dramatic. This actually is something that is a trend in South Korean Action Thrillers (Example: Man From Nowhere, I saw the Devil, Taegukgi).

    A decent suspence Thriller

    Valuable for our time. This film keeps the audience engaged throughout the end with a mystery. The expected the unexpected twist was really awesome. An huge advantage of this film was, it can be seen by any age sort of people because there was no any adult content. A good entertainer in this pandemic situation. Don't miss this film.

    Unexpectedly Superb Story unlike any other movie

    Randomly came upon this movie and I have to say this was a great movie that I was totally not expecting in terms of the quality of this story. There are more than one twist and you have to watch till the end to experience this uniquely interesting story.

    I've seen cops, gangsters, thriller, action etc Korean movies and generally get a good feel about the movie with few surprises here and there. But I have to say this movie took another step.

    Watch it and you will know what I mean and I am pretty sure you will enjoy it even if you are not a fan of Korean movies. This is a good solid movie worth spending couple of hours.

    A familiar story, well told

    Another fun Korean cop thriller in which a corrupt cop finds himself caught in a devious, ever-tightening trap. There are stylistic similarities to genre classics like A HARD DAY and that '80s classic NO WAY OUT, but this one manages to plough its own furrow. The film benefits from the usual high quality production values we associate with Korean cinema, and delivers plenty of narrative in the running time. The protagonist is realistic rather than sympathetic, although you do get a winning turn from Ma Dong-seok, on the cusp of super stardom. Despite the familiarity of the story there's some good tension here and a twist ending that genuinely surprises.
