About

If you enjoy Korean crime sagas about corruption, loyalty, and uneasy alliances, this should land, especially if you liked The Spy Gone North or The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil; Not for you if you need tight pacing and sympathetic leads.

Pros: powerful lead performances; tense crime rise-and-fall; gritty underworld atmosphere | Cons: overlong runtime; messy structure; few likable characters
