Watch it if you wanna get frustrated over stupid little plot holes!
Let me just say this first: this review contains SPOILERS!
If there's one good thing about this movie, it's the acting. As a fan of Sol Kyung Gu, I can say you'd never get tired of his acting. Although this is obviously not the best performance of him, it's still great. I also like how the actor played the role as his son. The father and son did nice jobs, but the rest is so so.
Now let's talk about the story, it's nothing new about a story of a kid being bullied violently. However, it doesn't mean you can't create a masterpiece or a superb piece without originality. And looking at the cast, it's obviously not a low budgeted film. Yet, I'm disappointed about stupidity of the director and writers.
The first one is about the teacher. I mean, no matter how she is new to the job or whatsoever, it isn't like she came from Joseon dynasty. She has like a whole day or more to take a picture of the kid's note as a proof, especially if it's involved about school's violence and definitely if a superior person demands to hold it despite that the letter being addressed to her.
Another one is Sol Kyung Gu's character recently check his son's group chat. And I mean all the evidence including the videos are still in the chat log. But let's just say he deleted it, I think he should've at least try to retrieve it or something. And then, there's this drone. If I were him, someone whose son is wrongly accused of, I'd check anything and everything which of course includes the drone. It doesn't even seem to me that the son hide it and also didn't throw away the chip (which is also a bit ridiculous because it seems like he's still holding onto it till after everything). And on top of that, the father being a known lawyer and being careless like that doesn't help at all.
There are also other minor plot holes that I forget to mention. But aside from that, I also don't like how the movie ends in a bit of rush. It feels like they end it like that because they gotta end it this way.
Honestly, it's a rather boring movie with expected twists and plot holes throughout the movie. In fact, it didn't thrill me at all. And what's more disappointing to me is it's such a waste of great cast for such child play -_-
