Sin-ui hansu

I thought I was going to really enjoy this movie. At least more than "Tazza: The Hidden Card", but it didn't come close to meeting my expectation. And "Tazza: The Hidden Card" is simply a more entertaining movie compared to this. The story starts out like it's going to lead up to something really cool. But the movie just seem to get blander and blander as it progressed. The is a revenge story that has the board game "Baduk", not the other way around. I must say everything about this movie is just straight up predictable. If you guess what direction this movie is going to go the chances are that you are right on the money. The cinematography is good and Ahn Sung-ki's acting was impressive and he still has that genuine charisma going. There is certain elements that are added into this movie that just doesn't go anywhere. And it just seemed unnecessary for the movie as a whole. At least in "Tazza" most of the characters had significance, I can't say the same for this movie.

6.2/10.
