Viewing Notes

Fairly routine heist almost-thriller cat & mouse flick. Doesn’t really reach for anything beyond the page to make it very visually exciting. Even the brief car chase is hohum.

This is yet another InterLoan title that I did not recall why I requested it. Sure it’s a Korean flick but not in the top 100 most popular or even highly rated. But as I was walking it back to the library drop off box tonight I saw that Cinema Epoch logo on the cover; it jogged my memory back to when they were have a movie sale on the site some months ago. As I perused the sale anything that seemed interesting I checked to see if my InterLoan had it. This was one of those titles! Wow. It was bugging me the entire viewing bc the title didn’t ring a bell.
