This movie was an interesting watch. It goes back and forth between slapstick levels of goofy and totally serious, which really caught me off guard at first. You just never know what to expect next. The story itself isn't very well developed or original, but it's more about the different characters. I had quite a few good laughs and there were some rather touching scenes as well. I was especially happy to see Dong-seok Ma again. No matter if he plays a funny goofball or a serious gangster, he's just the best. You'll definitely be entertained.

Make sure you watch this movie The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil first, trust me it will make sense. I'm glad I seeing Start-up after that movie. Was it on purpose? Who knows but just trust me, I couldn't believe it.

Ma Dong-Seok gives a great performance & probably turned heads at marvel from this performance. Although slow starting at first, the movie develops nicely and all loose ends are tied up by the end. It tackles the pressures of what teens face trying to find purpose. It also shows the realities of a life of regret and pain. In the end (no spoilers) what I will say is it's great!!!

You have two different things going on here. One is a movie and the other is a series. The video trailer is for the series while the cast line up and reviews are for the movie. Get it together...Please.
