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.
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.
Dong-goo (Lee Jehoon) is a thief, but an elite one: he robs tombs and monasteries of their treasures. The difficulty lies in finding buyers, many of whom feel they can just take the loot from him, although they learn differently quickly. After proving himself with one job, he's offered another - to raid a supposedly empty tomb that is scheduled to be "restored" and make off with its treasure - so he puts together a team including Dr. Jones (Woo-jin Jo) and Shoveler (Im Won-Hee), and soon the race is on....
This is a lively caper flick with a dozen twists and turns as one expects from caper flicks; think a Korean Ocean's 11 with a little Indiana Jones thrown in for good measure (there's a reason one of Dong-goo's team is called Dr. Jones)! Part comedy, part action and all side-switching and racing to beat the bad guys, the film also leaves the possibility of a "further adventures of" sequel, which I for one would go to see!

I thoroughly enjoyed this caper that reminded me of Ocean's Eleven with a side of Lupin the Third and just a hint of Indiana Jones. The final plot twist was a bit predictable, but the film still packed a few surprises towards the end.
A reviewer by anarchronox claimed to be horribly not fond with the movie since he has a hard time reading subtitles plus foreign movies dont suit his type. it least this movie is better than the unrealistic indian movies he has watched. please ignore his awfully written review and watch the movie! the cast acted amazing and did not disappoint.
