I seem to have an unpopular opinion here, but to me the movie was incredibly boring and slow. I found myself falling asleep, and though there are a few humorous scenes I'll give the movie credit for, the film just didn't catch me. The acting was fine, I didn't see much of that to worry about. The characters were a little underdeveloped in my opinion... Hyun Jun didn't get much of a back story at all, and the only thing I gathered from his story is that he works for an agency, while his mother thinks he works for the government. I wanted to know how he got into the assassination business, but unfortunately this was left out. Jin Young gave us a little more, and I see the message the movie is trying to send; some people's reasons to commit suicide seem petty to others, but is so important to the suicidal person that it seems worth taking his or her own life for. I see the message, and it's a good one, but I still think more could have been done. I saw Hyun Jun falling for Jin Young, but not quite Jin Young falling for Hyun Jun. That just seemed to come out of nowhere, like the director suddenly yelled "Wait, I focused so much on the action scenes that we forgot the romance! Quick, throw it in at the end and maybe the audience won't notice!" Speaking of action scenes: not very action-y. You got guns, poison, anything you want... and the action scenes fall flat. The story was good, not great; the characters underdeveloped but funny; and some things seemed thrown in for laughs that didn't really make me laugh. I wouldn't recommend this movie, but I seem to be a minority in these reviews so you do what you want. ;)
