    Seriously????

    You have two different things going on here. One is a movie and the other is a series. The video trailer is for the series while the cast line up and reviews are for the movie. Get it together...Please.

    Funny and involving

    This funny and entertaining movie has a quirky independent feel. The well written story about 2 friends trying to make money. The well crafted plot links things up nicely and has fresh humour and pretty exciting fight action as part of the story. The top notch cast is likeable. Jung Hae In is likeable and moving as the guy who works for debt collectors. He shows he can do different things from romantic roles. Felt quite scared for his character. Park Jung Min is funny as the guy who cannot fight and works in a restaurant doing delivery. Ma Dong Seok is perfect for the gangster chef. Liked the tone and vibe of this funny story.

    You won't believe this!!

    Make sure you watch this movie The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil first, trust me it will make sense. I'm glad I seeing Start-up after that movie. Was it on purpose? Who knows but just trust me, I couldn't believe it.

    The movie that got Marvel executives attention

    Ma Dong-Seok gives a great performance & probably turned heads at marvel from this performance. Although slow starting at first, the movie develops nicely and all loose ends are tied up by the end. It tackles the pressures of what teens face trying to find purpose. It also shows the realities of a life of regret and pain. In the end (no spoilers) what I will say is it's great!!!
