Viewing Notes

Korean Japanese collaboration based on a Korean webtoon that often feels like an episodic series crunched into a 2hr feature. The pacing and chapters are like a tv series. Found enough here to enjoy and recommend but also a little hokey in places.

Its strength is with Ayaka Miyoshi as the badass boxer out to save her sister. She’s unrecognizable from her starring role in DANCE WITH ME. That’s probably a good thing bc she needs to be believable as this human weapon. If this got a Blu release I’d buy it.
