Bloody revenge is at the heart of this stylish action-thriller that doses the classic femme fatale story with a shot of adrenaline as it follows a former assassin who will stop at nothing to cut ties to her past.

It's a pretty good story, the action is top notch, but it can be hard to follow if you're not paying attention. It goes back and forward between the past and present very often. I could have done without the love interest side plot. A little too convenient that she would be interested in some random dude that hits on her. Made her character seem a bit weak in my opinion.

It's okay.. way too frenetic sometimes... Makes it hard as hell to follow the action on screen at some points. The story really isn't anything new, especially if you've seen Shiri (a fantastic Hong Kong shoot em up thriller)

The story was a confusing, jumbled mess. Also, the unsteady, first-person camera scenes (a la "Hardcore Henry") were really hard to follow. (Thankfully there aren't that many scenes like that.) Overall, very "meh". If you want to see a truly great, hard-hitting Korean action flick, watch "The Man From Nowhere".
