Dogool

An upbeat slightly comical movie about stealing a sword from a tomb. The direction is quite well paced. Lee je hoon is the right guy for this role. I was a bit confused towards the end.

There are some funny parts, and some exciting parts. Overall, mood is playful and light. The real objective of the heist is revealed only towards the end with only the slightest hint earlier on. This took a lot of time and cunning for Kang Dong-goo to pull it off spectacularly. That the writer and director are able to achieve this sleight of hand on an unsuspecting audience is a tribute to the film's ingenuity.

I didn't expect this movie to be a masterpiece but at least i thought it would deliver what commercial korean movies usually deliver, enjoyable and fun moments you don't have to think a lot about it , it's the formula that worked 10 years ago with movies like The thieves /Tazza and other legendary pop corn movies with huge multicast, nice plot with many twists, some moments of laughter but unfortunately this movie failed to even reach that level of being entertaining with boring story line and predictable twists even the acting wasn't good enough and cheesy in a lot of times, it was really disappointing and waste of time except if you're a huge fan of the actors and can tolerate how bad the movie is.

The movies lacks the zing factor to make it interesting. The story is very predictable and boring. Korean cinema has produced many great movies. Sadly, this movie does not do justice to the greatness of Korean cinema.

Ignore this movie.

I was hesitating while picking this up as I have seen so many negative comments about it. But, of course, they are wrong about this or maybe have different point view. However, I enjoyed this. First, I thought, It's a typical heist movie, all about planning and focusing on execution of heist. Unlike heist movies here some fun elements which I like most. The most surprising thing about the movie is it turns out be a revenge movie.
