Amazing 1 half, nonsense 2nd half, did they switch to another script writer or wat? Everything is good, the acting, camera, sound, ost, directing but the script doesnt make any sense after the parking lot scene, why empty hospital? Why let them go? I am confused.
Plot summary
In the dystopian South Korea, Jun Seok gets out of prison for a previous heist he and his friends had messed up, and the currency (the Korean won) has crashed massively, making the haul of their last job effectively worthless. Jun Seok proposes one last heist to his best friends Jang Ho and Ki Hoon, in order for the trio to escape from their miserable situations. Their target is an illegal gambling house, which stores hefty stacks of US dollars. The trio recruits Sang Soo, who currently works in the gambling house. After getting firearms from Bong Shik, a friend Jun Seok knew in prison, the quartet proceeds with the heist, which finishes messy but successful. They take a large sum of cash and the gambling house's surveillance hard drives, which contain footage of shady dealings between the gambling house's owners and various criminals. The loss of the surveillance hard drives made the gambling house's owners unhappy. They recruit killer Han to track the quartet and retrieve the hard drives.

Wat happened to the second half
South Korean (A+ Movie) My Ratings 9/10
KOREAN HEAT
Within the sweaty, blood-smeared constraints of Yoon's hugely contrived narrative, though, the film does succeed as a slice of high-calibre, testosterone-fuelled escapism
A tour-de-force exercise in non-stop tension.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ACTION FANS.
Crime does (not) pay
Mostly I would reckon it does not pay. Well obviously most of the times it pays at first (as in you aquired a lot of money),but we are talking about the long run here. What good is a lot of money, if you don't have a chance to spend it? Right? I would argue that it's better to struggle to survive than to live in constant fear. But if the characters here would have thought the same way, we would not have a movie.
So while this might take a while to actually take off, and lives off suspense rather than action scenes, it may take a bit of pleasure of some people watching it. Having said that, if you bare with it, towards the end there is quite the action scene, that is more than rewarding. Of course since this is also a drama, it will not end on that note ... not sure if the ending this chooses does the movie any favor with most audience members ... hard to say. I kind of liked it
