A beautiful crime trust story

The Merciless is one of the few gangster crime movies that I've watched that does justice to the complex dynamics involved in a criminal lifestyle where trust is scarce and death is plentiful. Yim Siwan does so much more than justice to his character and every action he performed carried more than a 1000 words. Sol Kyung Gu played the role of the older brother in such a problematic manner that at some point his character found that its own contradictions had led to his downfall.

This movie always kept me guessing and really brings up the question of trust and conviction in one's own way and how others fit in that system.
