I would probably give this movie more of a 7.5 than an 8. But let's settle it with 8 I have been thinking about this film for very long but kept putting it off for some reason. Today, I finally got around to watching it and it pleasantly entertained me from the beginning to the end. This has to be my most favourite Korean movie yet. I think this movie had a really interesting plot. Most of all, I loved the heroine. I like how brave she was and so skilled at fighting. She is very un-ladylike and goes around snooping trying to find a criminal aka our hero. That provides for a lot of hilarity. Plus, she has an amazing chemistry with the male lead. I love all their scenes together. It left me wanting for more. Koreans definitely know how to do romance. And of course, I have to mention its extraordinary camera work. The action scenes are all wonderfully shot. It was quite a creative job done on the cameraman's part. Also, good direction and good editing made it more enjoyable. Towards the end, it seemed like too much action but again there were shots that took my breath away. This is were the best parts of the film. Also, there were hardly any boring parts which would have made me want to skip some scenes. I've always had a history with Korean films such that they bored me a lot or put me to sleep. This is one movie which kept me awake the entire time. The ending was all sorts of things but not satisfying. I feel like there should be a sequel to this film. There were a lot of unexplained things so my thirst didn't get satisfied. This movie would make an amazing drama because the story has so many small things which can be very well adapted into one. I would really love it if there ever was one with such cool characters. All in all, this is a thoroughly entertaining film. And, it broke my record of having seen boring Korean movies since forever. This is a highly recommended film!
