Brutal
My take on this movie comes from a gut level reaction, rather than any expertise in the gangster genre movies.

I found the movie to be a gory, but realistic, portrayal of the depths of man’s capacity for greed and violence. Whereas movies made in the US have watered down the showing of violence, this movie didn’t. It showed graphically how men can be pushed, by despair and need, to fight with everything they have to not just survive, but to prosper.

I thought all the actors seemed committed to their character’s reasoning behind their actions, so I didn’t find them to be disengaged from their roles at all. I was particularly impressed with Lee Min Ho’s portrayal of such a brutal character, which was so far outside of his normal romantic lead roles.

In the end, I just felt sorry for the sad state of their lives. Whether this is the intent of the creators or not, I don’t know. But I was glad I took the time to watch this movie.

Predictable with some entertainment
Fight scenes are well timed and performed (as only Asian cinema can do) but the plot didn’t surprise me. My six stars are for that reason.

I expected more about Lee Min Ho but there’s not original at his acting: it feels like he always does it the sme way. Maybe the korean movies fans will enjoy this film (at the cast there are many known actors) but for the rest of us it’s not that interesting.
