It's got a love-story. A lot of fighting. Ruthless thugs going around killing randoms for money. Violence. Desperation. Low-life scum.
The cops are hard-working on the trail of the gang but the problem is they get to a prostitution den and find under-age girls working; BUT they don't do anything about it other than a shake-down and trying to find out where their 'boys' are.
This is the biggest flaw of the movie. In other movies they would have all been arrested for this. I don't understand why this did not take place in this movie and their operational license being revoked. I am so confused.
Otherwise this is a solid but standard cop action flick taking inspiration from films of this era and the Hong Kong films of the 1990's.
There's some good sequences of violence and chases. The score is actually descent. The acting carries this movie a bit better than the script and the tension between characters and character development is very solid.
It's just a bit lazy with some aspects of the script. It's from over two decades' ago now and a lot has changed with technology and CCTV. South Korean film improved massively in a short space in 2000's.
However the actors were very notable and strong and I enjoyed it. It's a fun popcorn movie to relax to. 7/10. A Third Window Films' DVD.
