A fun throw-back to those crime capers of the 1960s like Ocean's 11

A fun, campy action movie that feels like a throw back to those crime capers from the 1960s. Go Hyun Jun is perfect as Chun Soo Ro, the wallflower protagonist who gets sucked into the middle of a double-crossing drug deal by a fake nun, hilariously played by Jin Kyung who makes the most of her all-to-brief screen time. Yoo Hae Jin is great as "Red Shoes", the menacing man of mystery. (His hair should've received its own screen credit.) It's hard to imagine Detective Sung being played by anyone other than Sung Dong Il, who is as bombastic, snarky, and short-tempered as ever. The rest of the cast is good too, and everyone seems to be playing their part with a twinkle in their eye. The OST contains some magnificent big band & orchestra arrangements that accentuate the throw-back feel. This movie would be great fun to see on the big screen with the volume turned way up!
