Good but not Song Kang Ho's Best Movie
I enjoyed this film with one of my favorite Korean actors, Song Kang-Ho, in the male lead but I did not think it was one of his best movies. The synopsis of the movie is pretty much as it is stated above on the Amazon page. I found it very slow moving at times so maybe some things could have been edited out so that it was paced better. The girl who played the lead in this film, Shin Sae-kyung, seemed fairly emotionless throughout as though she was in some type of perpetual euthymic state. I did not really feel any chemistry between Song's character and the girl's character. She plays a sharpshooter who befriends Song and you are never quite sure if she will kill Song's character until the very end. Most of the action takes place in the second half of the movie with Song trying to evade getting shot as he is framed for something he did not do by the mob he once belonged to. There is an interesting and well filmed knife fight and a car chase in the farmlands of Korea in the second...
